boy I thought I had a constrictive budget lol. yeah dude get a part time job or something, even if you can get that engine in, all the random junk that you need to make it work (well) is going to be way way more than $200. put it this way, it was more than $200 for my intake, plugs, wires, and windshield wipers+washer fluid. I found out from the 96 that if it's not running good when you get it, don't get it. these cars are absolute money pits if they don't work and it is sometimes very difficult to identify a problem when you don't know whats making it not work. I agree with the other dude, go get a honda, I bet you can get a 86-90 prelude that runs for like $200 to $250, I bought one last year for $350 and it was awsome untill I "accidentally" had a honda demo derby with my buddies. btw hondas last in demo derby's, if the other cars are also hondas lol.
