hey yall im semi new so ihope that this is the right section for this but here goes
now keep inmind that i have swapped a motor before but i have never built one before so try to help me out
i am going to build a b20b vtec with obviously a b20b block and a b16 head
the reason i am using a b16a head is because that is what i already have
the block has a spun #3 rob bearing so im buying it for 100 and im going to use acl race bearings and a new oem oil pump
the head is going to be p&p and im having supertech bronze valve guides along with brian crower dual valve springs and titanium retainers installed with a set of stage 2 skunk2 cams and some aem trutime cam gears
the block has allready has the oil sending unit tapped and has the dowels for a b16a head so the only thing as far as an ls vtec kit iwill need is arp head studs and a golden eagle b20b modded head gasket and an oil line for the head
and i have been told that i need to have one of the oil gallys plugged and that sounds like bs to me i always thought that it had to be tapped for an oil line
here is the current parts and price list as of yet
the new price list goes as such
b20b block---100
dual valve springs and titretainers----319
bronze vavlve guides----89
stainless line-----est 20
