Default Question about a b16 swap.

Ever since I got my '89 Integra, I've been saving up for an engine swap (Only have about $500 at the moment). The thing is, I have no idea how much it'd be for parts + labor to drop a b16a1 in there. The d16a1 gets down for a 17 year old engine but I need something better. I'm expecting it to be at least $2,500. Input on the best place to go for the swap would be appreciated too.

Also, if you have any better suggestions for an engine swap, I'd appreciate that info.

I don't know what motor's are able to be dropped in to a pre DA integra. I wouldn't imagine it would be any different from a EF or CRX. B16a's are pretty quick motors. But it's still a 1.6Litre motor. If anything I would say do an LS swap if you don't really care about NOT having VTEC. I'll do some more research, but in the mean time, Check out Hmotorsonline.com
