Re: dropping a B20 block under a LS head (92Lx)

Just wondering if anyone has done this - obviously, Honda has already done it since my understanding is that the B20 head = LS head. Anyhow, is there any difference in the b20 block that I'd have to be aware of, as far as wiring, mounts, or otherwise?
My plan is to take my B18B1 hatch, use the B20 for extra displacement, use a severely built B18B1 head (crower 404s, port work, etc, etc), and then drop in some eagle rods and bump compression to 10.5:1 in the B20 block.
Does this make sense? or am I completely out of my mind? I would bore the LS block, but my thinking is that I'd like to keep a stock sleeve size.

Makes sense, just go with the B20 block.

Now all I have to do is stop breaking random stuff, axles, cam seals, etc...and maybe one day I'll get around to building this stupid motor.
