Default m62 + b20b conversion questions?

Since the machine shop is still over a month away fron giving me back my block, I decided to pick up a b20b from a friends shop that was just sitting there. The motor is in and running right now, but it is lacking in the power department. I decided yesterday to buy a used b16 intake manifold so I can run my M62 blower on it. I figure that 200whp isn't hard to do on a b20 blown to 9psi.
I have a question though.
I know the manifold needs to be slightly work with the b20 head, but what alternator mount do I use? I'm guessing that I stick with the jrsc GSR mount that I have?

Is there anyhting else I need to know before I get into this project?

Does anyone have pics of a setup (I already have the Endyn ones, thanks ).

Cheers, and wish me luck.
I need to represent the jrsc crowd at our local drag strip and figure 13's from my non-vtec will be the perfect way to do it.

im pretty sure all the alternator mounts are the same for the kits.

that's what I thought.
It can't be that difficult a swap.
I'll post pics when I'm done.

all alternator mounts for all JRSC kits that go on B series motors are exactly the same.. it doesn matter which one u use..

The only difference between the kits (b16, b18c, b18b,b20)...is the sizes of the belts that it comes with, the sizes of the blower nose pulley, and the bolt patterns between the intake manifolds for how it mounts on the head... (b18b-b20 intake manifolds are the same, b18c5-b16 intake manifolds are the same, and b18c1 is on its own..)..........but its very easy to modify the intake manifolds so that they can fit on any head u need......thats pretty much what i had to do....im using a b18c5 intake manifold modified to fit on my b18b...

That's great to hear greekspeed. I was hoping it would be a simple swapover.

Thanks for the answer!
