Well you have plenty of options but since you don't want to break the bank I would suggest the following...

ZC; this is like 130hp DOHC. Thats pretty good. You could get a complete swap for under $1000. These bolt right up and you will have to convert from DPFI to MPFI which you can do from an HAsport harness for $199. The only problem I have with this is reliability. You are supposed to rebuild the whole engine and that will cost another $1000 for parts and gaskets. So to make a long story short this is a waste of money.

D16 SOHC VTEC; these engines have like 125-127hp and come from 92-95 EX and Sis, and newer EXs. They bolt right up (except for the front mount, but I think you can use your old mount and it will work). Wiring on this shouldn't be that hard if you use a VTEC Controller or an MSD RPM Activated Switch. You can find these engines for pretty cheap, I would suggest finding someone with one of these cars who is getting a DOHC B-series swap or something because they would probably sell the engine for cheap. Also you will need to use your old Tranny because these engines are Hydro clutch and ours are cable. But no big deal. Just buy a new clutch and you will be ok with the added power, and clutch would cost probably the same as a used tranny so you'll be ok. When I do my swap I plan to do this engine swap. Since these engines probably won't be sitting around as long as a ZC they will be more reliable.
