no you can not put a b16 crank in a b20 because the stroke is longer in the b20 and the b16 crank has a short stroke, he do hit me up on aim-IMMAWINER OR YAHOO- chris-krumholt, and ill set you strait

here is a dyno chart of an LSVTEC using a B16a head plotted against a LSVTEC w/ a B18C(1) head



"Subject: LS/VTEC with GSR head VS B16A head similar mods.



This is a VERY good comparison to look at...

Question: What is the best head to put on my LS/VTEC, GS-R or B16A?

Answer: In the opinion of Atomic and myself, I have to go with a GS-R head.

Look at the graph...here is the 2 motors..

On 1 side we have the LS/VTEC B16A head...coming in at 180 HP...
The bottom end is EXACTLY the same as the GS-R LS/VTEC...exactly...
so it makes for a good comparison.

B16A has:
port flow port/polish (mild)
Civic Type-R intake cam
ITR exhaust cam
Comp valve springs/retainers
Type-R intake manifold

GS-R head has:
Stock head
Stock valvetrain
Stock intake manifold
ITR cams, intake and exhaust.
and it made a little more power, as you can see by chart.
With the GS-R head, you also will definitely get more torque.

For the money though, B16A head is a good choice.
Remember, this is not a perfect test, it just shows a pattern....

I definatly want to start with the b20 platform. What do you think would be the cheapest and most reliable, b20vtec or b20 turbo, also I figured since the CRV block has such a bad rod stroke ratio, but crazy torque, would it be worth it to keep a b20vtec at the stock LS rev limit or perhaps 7500rpm, and stil run hard.

Wait a second, I didn't get the point - b20z block + b16a2 head + high compression wiseco pistons 84.5mm will rev at? 6500? Or im not getting something... Please explain anyone to dummy =)

if you have the block girdle (and fortified internals and valvetrain) then you can rev it as high as you make power.......your ECU is what cuts off the fuel, then you have moving parts that will limit you

that was all i needed to see how much power it has. The only reason is because in my city there is this guy taking everybody out. He has an EG (the 92-95 civic hatch) with that LS/VTEC setup, i heard is fully built all motor and its runing 13.4 with semi-slicks and that is freaking quick.
