Engine Swap, how much?

Ummmm, you can get a full B16 swap for under 2000 down here. My friend Chance has a del sol and the shop wants about 1600 to swap in a B16 and convert his auto to manual. The price includes the tranny, ecu, axles, harness, shifter linkage, clutch setup and labor. It is from a reputable shop also. Too bad you aren't in Tx. Or are you?

hey I'm in TX also, where are you at? I am new to this stuff so forgive the retard ?, but what is the difference in b15,b16, and v-tec? I know crap about engines, but I drive a 98' civic lx and would eventually like to swap the engine for v-tec, but I still have a lot of research to do. You wouldn't happen to know where I could find some good info would ya? ( I'm about 30 miles south of houston).
thanks
