Default Identifying a JDM B20B block.

Whats up everyone. Anyone have any pointers or things to look for to be certain a B20 block is in fact a JDM B20b block. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Remy

From what I have heard is on the block where it says B20B on the US spec engines there is a number that follows it like B18C5 and from what I have heard is that the Japanese spec engines do not have that last number following the block so it would be the B18C engine instead. I am not 100% sure if it is true but I think it is. Hopefully this might help.

You are correct on that, JDM motors do not have the last number that the US equivalents have.
