why not just forget the b18 block and run internals in your b20 with sleeves and stick the b16 head on that, alot of top end and bottom end sounds nice to me. either way welcome to hmt.

Because you can run more power on a open deck b18 than a b20. Sleeving a b20 is also 100-150 more than any b-series. Plus later on if he wanted, he could sleeve his b18 and make it 84mm (2.0l) if he wanted for the extra displacement.

Bottom line, stock b20's suck, and its not worth it to sleeve them since you can make a B18 do the exact same thing.

Yessssim I am. I live in Avondale. Im on all the local forums (aztegs, azht, azparttrader). I have no real life, at all.

Yea, I dont want to boost the B20, at all. It's in perfect shape, Ill probably swap it into a ED or something. But Ill make the GSR a 1.834L and boost that. I think that'll make enough low end and high end power, right?
