Well if I were with you I would swap a b18c1 or b16. Those motors will take care of you and are way more reliable and there aftermarket is unbelivable, that is what I would go with.

i was racing my friends hooked up neon ACR, and i was shifting at 8000rpms (i had a performance chip) and the car had 127000 miles on it, and all 4 gears were tapped going into 5th, and i threw a rod bearing. man was it nasty- needless to say, one more win under the belt, but a blown motor. definately not worth it.
