whats gonna be easy

allright ive narrowed it down to these engines i want to put in my 91 4dr civc.
ZC D16A8/A9 from 90-93 integras
D16Z6 from del sol and civic si and civic ex all in the 92-95 years
B18C1 from integra gsr 94+
B16A2/A3 from 93-95 del suck with vtec

does any one know which would be the easiest swap into my car (91 4dr civic LX) or have a web site that would point me to the clearest and best coice.

i want to avoid the jdm stuff for the sake of finding replacement parts so i want to avoid the ZCG's and what not

any info would be much appriciated !

just an fyi, the 90-93 teg is equipped with the b18a, or a b17a in rare occasions. its the 86-89 that has the engine youre talking about, and the mounts dont work, making it more trouble than its worth. If you want a ZC, id suggest the jdm counterpart(there are sites listing usdm equivalent parts for the zc). The zc or the d16z6 is your best bet as far as simplicity goes.

In order of difficulty:
ZC (86-89 JDM integra, and some JDM crx's)
-Plug and play, but finding replacement parts is a little more difficult, also an older engine that wont pass smogs
SOHC Vtec(92-95 civic ex/si=d16z6, 96-2000 civic ex=d16y8)
-Little bit more than plug and play, but not much more, some fiddling with distributors, ECU's and vtec controller.
B16 (1998-200 Civic si, and some JDM cars)
-Gotta get new mounts plus vtec and ECU also older engines unless you are getting a new b16 which are very expensive.
b18 (gsr)
-Same as b16 except that the engine is a little taller, gotta get a JDM or new hood.
b20 (crv)
-Same as other b series except a few more issues, dont tread here unless you have money to spend.
h22 (lude)
-Much harder and expensive plus a bit heavy for the 4gen's.

no swap's as easy as you think it'll be :( haha....there's always something..
