Default What ENGINE should i BUILD?????????

Im about to build a new motor for my 95 civic coupe, and im kinda torn on what engine i should build!! Money isnt really the issue to a certian point!! Im debating on whether i should go H22 or B18, or maybe even B16 but i dont think i want a 16!! Im gonna be building it from the ground up trying to get all the power i can out of it!! i would like to hit the 3 to 400 hp range!! What do you guys honestly think would be the best fit!! I know theres some really experienced builders and racers on this forum and i would love to here what they hae to say!! Please back up your opinions with facts, i want this to be a serious build, so let me know what yous think!!

i think when you made your user name you hit the "J" instead of the "H" fyi.

doing a full build to hit 300-400? thats real fucking weak.

Do something unique... like a B16 or something.
