What would you guys build?
I have a complete B20B (JDM) bottom end and a complete B17A engine. The B20 has a cracked cylinder wall so I was thinking first off of getting the B20 sleeved with Benson's or Golden Eagle.
What would be the ultimate setup with the components I already have? I am just talking about engine here. Fuel management is of course another issue. Does anyone have any great ideas??? I will be using my B17A VTEC head. Thanks for your suggestions

Re: What would you guys build? (SCREWD)
do you know how your head was modified for the b20-vtec conversion? if the oilfeed hole was welded shut, then you won't be able to use your head anymore should you decide to use your b17a block again.
if i were you, i'd bring the b20 block down to GEM to see if it was salvageable. if not, then maybe try to locate a sleevable b18 block locally & have that sleeved to 84mm. b20 rods & crank are the same as b18 rods & crank so could still use your existing rods & crank if so desired (though eagle rods would be a wise upgrade from your shot-peened stockers).
