price the parts to build it and fill the block or just a rering and brg. b16 woulnt perform near as well as a turbo ls. you could run 12s for 1600 easy, as long as its done right.

do a compression and leak down test to see how the engine is for boost, if it needs a rebuild then just buy another b18 longblock....they are cheap.
