I seen them go anywhere from $1,300- 2,500
Yea, sell the shell and just buy a complete 94+ integra. They're not too hard to find as I-guy pointed out.

I've gotten a 95' integra 4dr auto ls w/ 180k miles for $2,900.

but if you insist on building this teg with a 3,000 budget. I'd look into buying a b18c1 (Gsr motor dohc vtec).

B18c1 bottom end: $300-400
Head: $300-400
intake manifold: $20

Then slowly piece things together or the complete swap goes for around $2,000. Granted you'll need gauges, harness and ecu but there are places that will take your ls harness and convert it to the gsr one i believe.

Ls/vtec is a waste of money and time.
