    Search.......your will find 2billion articles on this. B18b with 14b at 12lbs is about as much as you need, or want. Slowhatch on here had his ef with b18a swap and my old 14b and the car was a monster. Turbo size makes a world of difference. Build the d16 with vitara(as in suzuki vitara) pistons and some rods. You can make 400whp with a very cheap setup. Good luck.
