Both are good. More displacemnet will give you a faster spool. Depends which motor you can get the cheapest is the swap I would go with.

The sleeves in the B18 are designed a little better than the B20 sleeves. However, if you plan on sleeving the motor then it doesn't really matter.

definately a b18a/b....NOT a b20. Your stock sleeves are too thin on a b20..it will not react to boost well.
