Can you rev the b20b high, and how is the infamous rod/stroke ratio?

Thanks guys.

Exact same as the B18a/b same head as well. Just more displacement. The torque is just sweet on a b20, especially for the street.

hey skitals,if you need a swap shopping list, go to hasport.com they have a great one. Remember if you get a b20, its the one b series that has a different bore and pistons from the rest, so no swapping pistons unless they're aftermarket.

When you work on your car, you need to forget about what other people do when they work on theirs. Its bad logic to be like "everyone has a b16 so i wanna be different." If everyone wears a blue shirt and you wear a green shirt because of it, are you really being different or are you being influenced by the crowd. But wait, you wanted to avoid the influence from trends, and now you let it happen. Point is, don't try to be different because its not possible, you are part of earths society and its cyclical trends that do not begin or end with one person or group.

hehe np, yea and do make sure you hit up hasprot for that parts needed list, its very conclusive. i actually forgot it existed when i was trying to figure out what model car to buy a clutch kit for the other day, lol.

Thanks, I was actually aware of the in guides at hasport... except it is for the older motors (like it doesnt list the 95 LS, or b20, etc). Any other good sites?

It will be the same list. The only thing youll have to do is make sure you use the ecu that the 95 came with and i believe one more O2 sensor to it.

The key words here for me are;
Complete LS for $800 and turbo
If it was me i would go LS because cheap,
easy to find in wreckers and most importantly
the LS tranny has tall gears. Turbos love to
spool ,Turbos love LS trannys and the auto xers
i know like LS trannys so they dont have to shift
And for daily driving you cant beat the LS 5th gear
on the hyway
