I have two options either the CRV or LS motor. I was wondering wich one would run faster in my coupe and wich one is going to run faster stock. Also I'm planning on putting a vtec head next summer so I want to know wich one is going to make more power with vtec

 

B20 DUH!!!!!!!!!!!! if you want just a short block. let me know I have one for sale..

 

crv will make more power, after you get past the wiring converstion which is minor.

But you realize adding a vtec head, will require a lot more than just slapping the head on and tightening the bolts....

 

Ya i know but I'm not plannig the vtec head right now saving that for next summer so im plannig on leaving it stcok for now.

 

With crv you're going to need to match the vtec head to at least 84mm, which means you'll have to get new sleeves....LS might be the way you want to go.....all depends on how much skrill you wanna drop....

 

Well for right now i want to keep it stock (no vtec head) but next summer I want to build my motor a bit but thats somthing I did not that you have to resleeve to put a vtec head on a crv. What else do you have to do except the oil line I already know that


Thanks

 

wich one is best for boost the crv or the ls

 

just bought a 93 civic hatch cx and want to boost it so what do you suggest

 

well u don't have to resleeve the head, but if you don't you risk the pistons tearing the head gasket apart with the different bore sizes (81mm vs 84mm).

Other than that, everything else is the same as ls/vtec swap.

Plans for a turbo depend on your budget. I suggest doing a search to find out which would fit your needs.

 

B20 84mm bore vs. LS 81 mm......more displacement.

 

there head gaskets just for this swap using the b16 head and the b20 block.cometic makes it check race engineering raceeng.com [URL].there are also pistons for this swap on there.

 

Just anoter quick question how can a B20 be reved safelty stock??

 

i know of one that saw 8500 rpms every day for 35,000 miles.

 

I havent really looked into crvtec too much, ls/vtec is my thing, but again it all depends on how they're built....like any other motor....

well is that a stock B20 with no vtec head??

 

$1000 more... WHAT R U TALKING ABOUT??? I have a stock B20 in my 2000 Coupe. If you're going stock (Non-vtec) go with the b20, but only if you can get one for a good price ($800 and less) I ran a 15.6 at the track with chrome 17's and full interior, full tank of gas and a bunch of **** in my trunk. However, now with chip and CAI, I am beating cars that are verified 14.8. 14.9 1/4mile cars...

 

AH man that is sweet. That's exacly what I was looking for. where did you set you rev limiter and you say you have a chip and CAI and you beat cars that run 14.8 in the 1/4 mile that is what I'm planning on putting in my car thanks for the help man
