LS/B20 headgasket the same?
 
i guess b20/ ls have the same head right? does that mean i can order a crv headgasket for my ls motor? because there like $20 less

LS hg's aren't that expensive...look for the fel-pro mls gaskets from somewhere like advance auto or Vatozone. Think I picked one up for under $40.

are those good for boost? i mean should i pick up a oem for damn near 100 or just go with the felpro? im lookin to make 250whp max this summer with this motor and a ford t3 6o/63, also thinkin about picking up some ARP studs for cheap insurance

Go with the Fel-Pro. Federal Mogul makes it and they are a big ---- gasket, brake, and other cancer causing products company. ARP studs would safe your ass way before a headgasket sold by Honda, which is probably made by Federal Mogul anyway.

Well, I compared the fel-pro and oem honda hg's side by side and honestly I don't see any noticable difference between the two.

I run that HG on my LS-vtec at 15psi and had zero problems, its all about the deck/head surfaces
