resleeved b18b or stock b20b?
Which would be preferable? I am eventually going turbo so you might want to figure that in when giving your opinion. Also, i was thinking about doing some Eagle forged rods with JE 9:1 pistons. Which setup would these be better in? Thanks for all the help.

well if u plan to sleeve the b18b .. u might as well bore it out to 2.0... thus basically u will have a b18b with the displacement of the b20 and the strength to hold the power when you run the turbo..though it may be a tad more pricewie than a stock b20 but for the piece of mind and time saved you can't go wrong

thats what im doing to. i just got my b18b swap in, i will be rebuilding it w/forged crapola and having ge resleeve it. it does cost a little more than the stock b20, but the strength and durability would be great.
b18b(sleeved to 2.0) + forged pistons/rods + boost + boost = O O O O, you guys know what im talking about.

Either one you can get cheeper........Sleeved 84-85mm bores of course. 
If you planning non-Vtec at least the LS will come with a useable intake manifold rather than the B20 intake manifold.
