Re: K20 v.s. B20 (miskone)
Um....is this a joke? I think you will have a HARD time bolting in and making the K20 work in your 92 hatchback...you know that is the motor out of the newer Civic Si and RSX right? Well, good luck...I can already see the flames starting...duck in cover!

Re: K20 v.s. B20 (miskone)
I was thinking of getting a new engine for my '92 Hatch and was wondering the advantages and disadvantages of the two.
B20 Non-VTEC. Have to get a custom swap because the B20 Tranny doesn't work in Civics.
The B20 is definatly the cheaper way to do this.

You know what's really sad.. somebody will go out there and spend $10k on that swap, line up next to somebody who spent like $3k on a turbo setup on a SOHC and get waxed
VTC- who'd rather spend $10k on a built B20-T

i met that guy and saw his car in person about 8 months ago. car is no joke. its stock as hell on some SI rims. when i talked to him and his friend we asked them what motor they were running and when he said a rsx type r motor i was like.....WTF can you run that by me again. man...his car takes off!!! and his friend with a EG had the b16b in his motor so these guys were running some pretty damn nice motors for a long time now.

That K20 swap is a very remarkable one. But as far as price goes. Unless you got ONE hheeellll of a deal. Or money to spend. It aint worth it right now.
But mad props to who do it
