All motor? YS1 with LSD woul dbe pretty nice as well....

as far as the tranny goes any b series tranny will work.

The B20 motors are all non-vtec as well. Any B-series cable or hydro tranny will work on it. The B20 motor is actually a 2.0 liter B18b motor. In fact, they use the same head. I'm eventually going to build a B20 Vtec motor with a 1st gen B16a tranny for my 89 Civic Si.

To get vtec on the B20 you just need to put on a vtec head. Like LS/VTEC. B20 block with B16 head is a good combo, and yes it is worth it.

Go to the site listed above www.crvtec.com should answer any questions you have.
