im in a dellima (sp)

ok,
i have my black hatch now, wrecked front end, radio harness is fried, holes from where some1 did a crappy bondo job thats starting to crumble.
i have a red cx hatch, blown headgasket, stock everything, MINT body.

my dillema is do i swap my d15b vtec from the black hatch to the red hatch and boost the red hatch?
or do i drive the red one with a clean boy thru the winter, and work on boosting the black hatch? ( with this option there would be no engine swaps, and i could uild up the black hatch for next auto-x season and have a complete sleeper)

do i swap the d15b into the red hatch and have a clean and fast honda? or keep the d15b in the black honda and have a fast beater/sleeper?

i hope you guys understand this.
my decision needs to be made cause my inspection on my black hatch ran out TODAY haha, and i will have to fix the rust spots and exhaust to pass.
thanks!

I'd swap the motor into the clean hatch. Save the clean hatch for the salt free roads of summer. :D

keep the beater just that, a beater. not reason to ruin another civic driving in crappy conditions.

That's what I was thinkin'. Use the beater through the winter & keep the clean car for autoX & good weather driving.
