for your accord, the only logical motor swap is the h22 or h23. dont try and swap in a motor that is not from a honda, unless you have money to wipe your ass with. swap in the h22, slap a turbo on it and call it a day. it will be much cheaper and easier to do than the other 2 motors you listed, and you know the parts were somewhat made to work together.
the fact that you listed a VW and mitsubishi motor to swap into the accord, leads me to believe that you still have a lot more research you need to do before you do anything, though. read more before you throw away $5000 on something you dont know anything about.

so u saying that you have an unlimited source of money? fer real, tell us how much the maximum you will get/spend will be (15k, 10k, 5k) and we'll tell you what is possible. you can do anything with enough money so the possibilities are endless. tell us how much thet maximum you would be willing to spend is.

with 14,000 i suggest,
buy a crx = 2000
b16 = 1500
suspension= 1200
headwork = 1000
bottom block = 3000
bolt ons = 2500 ( intake. exhaust. etc )
body work = 1500
gut out the car = nothing
50 shot nos kit = 500
ur new found knowledge = priceless
( notice how i over priced everything, odds r its gonna be a few thousand less )
