Default B16 or single cam?

I have a 95 del sol and I want to build a motor for it. But don't know if I want to spend alot of money or not. Just wondering would it be worth building a single cam motor, or just save my money and build a b16?

buy a b16 swap...then buy a b20 bottom end and build that while you drive the b16. when its done swap it over and eat mustangs for breakfast, their faces are priceless when a beat up honda passes the shit out of 'em.

did you say a lot of power?! swap a D16Y8 in there! use the automatic transmission too, it shifts so fast its like OMG short throws in manual cars take too long lol B>D only in motors. Get the torqueless wonder and build it.

You should get a stock LS swap and a turbo kit. You'll make 300whp on pump and run low 12's. Then build a LSv if you want more.

Would 2 or 3 thousand be enough to build the engine? And Where should I start?

ls engine and slap a ebay turbo kit on it, besides that if you want real stuff its gonna be super expensive. if you dont know how to do it yourself your gonna be paying most of that money on labor and trust me labor isnt cheap when ur building a engine.
