Re: Best B-series?
well a b18a1 is the easiest to get a hold of, it will do 12 w a turbo.
the b18b is the similar just about 3 years newer.
the b20 is a great vtec than turbo project. it will do 12s as well w/ turbo.
b18c1 or GSR motor will work great too.
wuts ur budget?

lol.. its gonna be hell if i have VTEC DOHC TURBO.. lol
they said if only ur shooting for high 12's.. but if your shooting for below 12's like 11 or 10. its gonna damage the engine especially the block.. thats wat i think??

go b18b1, best bang for ur buck IMO. You will still b able to put some serious numbers down on track and if u mess up ur engine there are dime a dozen of b18b1 and much cheaper than b18c1

Re: Best B-series?
This might not suit him.
Ok so the OP has something more to think about,
you say you want 12s and no idea on budget. What do you want out of your 12s? Are you willing to run slicks? Will the car be road legal? Are 12s in the hands of anyone or 12s in a good driver? (will you be upset if your first trip is a 15 when you have a 12 in the car) How hard core will you be for 12s? Are you willing to build suspension for just launching? Run a massive gear etc?
Think about what you want out of the car outside of a 12 sec 1/4 and we'd be happy to help.

Education for stuff like this is free.
My advice, learn to drive attend HPDE's auto X etc.
Get a job.
Read here and other places.
Then worry about modifications.
