Default Best D series motor

If I had a choice of any D-SERIES motor to boost, which would you choose, based on experience?

BTW, congrats to me and my 4th star (even though I wish I could earn money for it...)

b18c....

id do a a6 lower end, with a y8 head... up the comp ratio and still alllows you to retain the obd0 distributor without modification

if u plan on converting to obd1 or if u are allready, get the z6 head and dizzy.

b8 block(with 4v reliefs) a6 head. Poor mans mini me. vtec is overrated. I built this setup for basically pennies. People laughed at me when they looked at the cx block but with a 8lb flywheel and 2lb crank pulley this ******'s throttle response was crazy! I'll alway have 1.5 love. One man's junk is another mans treasure. But overall I'd take a jdm d15b anyday.

My d16z6 has worked out pretty well for me, so I vote for that.
