B20.

No replacement for displacement.

EDIT: make sure you build it right the first time. If you're going to half *** it stick with the LS/Vtec, as it might last a little longer.

If you are going to build the motor for N/A use, I would go B20. Just make sure you get the B20B or B20Z block form the CR-V. The old B20 Prelude engines are not the same.
