take a B20B and give it a real intake manifold right?

 

get the b20z more horses

 

manifold isnt teh reason most prefer teh Z it also has a knock censer,which is better if youy are goin b20\vtec

 

yup, the differance in hp is not in the block
its in the cams/ecu

 

i knew the z has more hp, but the B has good tourqe and i can find it easier. Since it'd be built anyway, the components that make the stock hp diff don't matter to me.

 

honda motors are all about cams and ecus.

 

I'd like to find a B20B for under $900 btw...

 

Derek I told you the difference the Z has more comp so it has alittle more hp. Im pretty sure that the Z only can in the 2 last years of the crv and the B motor was before which = more cheaper. The only down fall on those motors are the intake man so change that out and you have a very nice running motor. The tq is what makes that motor but put a vtec head on and the hp owns all.

i have a 00 z block with 33k miles.
just missing a crank for 550$

but any TEG LS, or crv crank will work,
im using the 00 crank in my 93 ls block
they have the same stroke

 

Give me a few days, i'll let you know...
