ive got a 91 civic dx 4dr with the stock d15b2 i just did a dpfi to mpfi swap - i like the d15's and d16's and would like to keep the d15 but in the long run i thought i would put a b20b/z with a b18a1 head on it but those are hard to get here on the cheap as are most honda b-motors are

dose any one else have a cheap idea or commits

(Note: its not my daly driver its just a cheap toy)

Y WOULD YOU PUT A B18A1 HEAD ON A B20? I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT A B20Z HEAD WAS BETTER. Y NOT BUILD A D16 IF
EVERYONE SAYS YOU CAN GET THE SAME OR BETTER FOR LEES FROM A D MOTOR?JUST CURIOUS. GOING THRU THE SAME THOUGHT PROCESS

(Note: the reson for the b20 swap is i want the tq. and the b18 head was to open up some cam options and i want to stick with the older obd0 setup)
