Default my b20 swap project diary

I found a b20 swap from osaka motorsports, it was a pretty good price. I was wondering if anyone knows a better place, nippon was 750 for just the long block.

Also i'm going to make my entire project in 1 thread, buying motor, getting it, and collecting parts. I won't install it until i have the b16 head on, new rods, balanced crank, and new header/exhaust.

Any help would be great,

if you've never seen that style IM, how can you say it's useless. Supposedly, the function of it is to use resonance to "tune out" a dip in the lower power band. Honda doesn't just slap useless pieces of junk on millions of engines for no reason, think and do some research before you make such a definitive statement.
