your opinion
im all about a B-series swap, but considering your situation, and the fact that you might not even have more than $1k, you should DEFINATELY N/A build the D.
use all OE honda parts (to cut cost) for the longblock itself, and save a little for cam, maybe a FPR, IHE, and a tune...
Y7 longblock + A6/A1 pistons + Y8/Z6 head + Y8/Z6 trans = fun cheap project.
that way, you get the experience of building a motor, you get drastically increased compression (which means decently quick), 100% dead reliable, and WAY more fun than anything else for the money...
then, if u had $2k, you got some suspension money and wheel money left over

and um... i assumed the orignal poster would do none of the work. I also assumed that he dosn't really have 2k and gave him a healty 1.5k.
He should boost it... ut it on 7-9lbs on a small turbo, use a 12:1 FPR and call it a day. This will keep him within his budget and allow him to pay someone to help.
Besides 1Cam boosted > 2Cams and unless you want to put some $ on it, just let it go...
FC_V8,
So yes, YOU can swap a B in for under 2k, but by the way the original poster worded his post, I ssumed he's not a hustler like you.
and um reps for the avatar!
