ls\v-tec should be more durable than a b-20 block. reason b-20 sleeves are thin. others can comment on this.

my room mate used to run a B20/VTEC turbo with 6 psi in his teg... had a lot of probs, but a well built motor (he bought it that way) may have held up better.

i have met at least one guy running a B20/LS and he liked it... but like renegade said, it may be more trouble that its worth long run.

do some more research and let us know.

I'm gonna go stock first. I found a good b20 block in orlando and i'm gonna buy a bottom-end kit from inline-four and top-end kit for a ls head and go fomr there.

sounds like a good plan....

thats the single best part about B-series setups, all the freakin blocks, trannys, flywheels, and most of the pistons are completely interchangeable.

Couldn't he use a block guard for the b20 for more support on the bottom end.

he certainly could, but i couldnt make any prediction there....

as you know, its a love hate thing, some people wont build motors without em, i never have, and have no probs yet... tho everything i do is pretty mild

i always thought - if honda didnt make closed decks, why change it? but thats an argument that doesnt belong here....

LMK how u like that B20 hskhatian, im thinking about goin 2.0 myself...
