Engine Swap

Hola everyone! I have a question. As most of you know I don't have a Civic. I know I know I know...shame shame shame. But I am getting one this summer!! The first thing I want to do with my Civic (96-00) is to swap the engine. It's instant horsepower. I saw something about a B16. It has DOHC and has about 189HP, its a JPN import.
My question to ya'll is how much should I pay for this engine, and is that even the right engine to get???? Please post some info for me!:bloated:

my friend just swapped a jspec b16 in his civic...ill check how much he paid for it but all i know was that he got a good deal on it. also i thought it was closer to 170 hp not 189.

:devil: i demand u to get the H22 for faster performance but with greater horsepower. as u can see i have one but when u get yours try to get the swap professionally done or u won't be driving that good on it....i have '00 from :grey: (japan) also

What are the specs on the H22? And in a small town, would normal mechanics know how to properly install it? I like the b16b and the b18c5. Plus how does this look in the price range? Also, do you know any websites that might have engines for sale?
