swap decision time? help

Okay this summer i am swaping my motor out without a doubt but i have the cash for the zc now, but everyone says for the extra 500 its worth the b16 and its kinda true. and if i get the b16 i would get it from here http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/s...page&item=30001 is there anything else i would need to do that swap besides what i comes with, it comes with the tranny ecu linkage for 50 motor mounts for 350 and teg hubs and knuckles for 50 is there any thing else i would need. cause if not thats 1600 w/o tax or shipping so id guess like 1900 or 2000 what do you guys think i could have the money by july and drop it right in or i could get the zc now and do the mpfi swap on my d15 so thats all done then rebuild the basic things in the zc and drop it in like 2 months from now i dont know what to do is the zc worth it or not? is the b16a much better?

well when i started my build on my b16, i will have spent at least another 500-1000 on various parts, like a wiring harness conversion, mounts, new hoses, belts, and regualr tune-up parts like spark plugs and wires and shit.

so factor in all that to your grand total, plus if your like me, then you may drop some funds on performance parts. my whole swap so far has cost me atleast 3000 and the motor isnt even in the car yet.
