Default B18 with k20 barings?

i heard that you can put k20 barings in a barings in a b18 and the crank spins smoother and you can grab a couple more HP out of the motor. does anyone know more about this?

some people do it because the k20 bearings are stlighty narrower i believe, and they have a different coating on them from what I hear.

Your best bet would be to search first and try asking in the all motor forum second.
