I am considering two different motor setups and I'm having trouble deciding which route to take. I currently have a 2000 B18c5 in my EG and was thinking of just sticking with the Type R and do some head work to it (valvetrain, P&P, etc....) My other option is to get a b20 block with high compression pistons, and also do some mild head work to the Type R head. What do you guys think?

you already have the type r so id just stick with that and build it..u can sleeve the b18 to a 2L instead of buying the b20 block

i like the type r. but overall it would be pretty much equal if both were built? Stick with what you have.

Stick with the R, get a good header, port the intake manifold, and valvetrain/m22 or blox b camshafts.

Oh yeah, maybe a 2-layer gasket and flat faced valves for a tiny bump in compression.

Finally, most important get it tuned.

I have a B20VTEC setup now but if you already have the C5 and it's running, why change it up?? stick with it and build it up slowly...it's more cost effective

Depends on your budget.
