I would go with the b20, I have built many of lsvtec and crvtec, both are great engines! They are the same engine except the b20 has 84mm bore over the b18 81mm bore! I had a b20vtec in an 93 hatch with je pistons eagle rods and sprayed 150 direct port on it for over a year! That was 2 years ago and now a friend has that engine in an ek! Still runs great! Go with the b20! As for parts I would get a teg type r oil pump and you have to use a vtec water pump! Golden eagle makes a vtec conversion kit for dowel placment and oil supply for vtec! A lil more power out of this unit! Also I would go with the b16 head but make sure u use a headgasket thats made for the b20 vtec setup!
Thanks,
Carter
