i did 84.5mm endyn 12:1 pistons in a b20z, and built it & beat the **** out of it for like 8,000 miles... then it started to run like ****, and occasionally puff white smoke. pulled the head, and it cracked between 2 and 3. it made like 210 and 140 at the wheels with ITR cams, and i dyno'd it when it was "running like ****", so i think the sleeve was cracked when i was onthe dyno. oh well.

are the internals ok on the b20 right now? if so it might just be worth it to sleeve it and you will be ok!
