Re:LS/vtec or B20vtec which is a better swap
 

i wasn't aware of that either and thanks for the info but i'm going to stick with all motor with the b20 swap if i do go with it.

Re:LS/vtec or B20vtec which is a better swap
 

If your going to stick with All motor, go b20.. I wouldnt hit it with any nitrous at all either.

I can count off 5 people local (including myself) who have had b20's that have cracked sleeves when going Turbo or Nitrous.

I suppose a mild setup on a b20 wouldnt be to bad, with some real conservitive timing on the top end would be fine. But me personally I would just end up blowing it up because thats the way I am. I just keep pushing and pushing until they are dead. Boost feels good :-\

i'm not going to use nitrous or boost cus i don't get boost happy especially if its going to cost me the swap,or i can just go ls/vtec cus paz is selling me a great deal with a b16a head.

i still say go for an all motor LS/vtec with ITB's and type R cams, or spoon, mugen or skunk, hell even ZEX makes good cams.

No. He needs to save all his money for a turbo setup. A basic Ls/Vtec will be fine. :)

Re:LS/vtec or B20vtec which is a better swap
 

eventually i'm going to go turbo but first i want to stay all motor so i can see if i beat a gs-r so if i do i can point and laugh at it when i come back around.than its boost baby yeeeeeeaaaaaaa

Re:LS/vtec or B20vtec which is a better swap
 

On second thought a cam and some ITB's would be pretty cool.

while i dont have the idea fresh in my head, I belive you have to take the 84mm cylinder bore going into the 81mm combustion area of the head into consideration.
Ive heard people say leaving it as is is better and other saying match porting it is best.
I say get whatever is cheaper.
