From personal experience, the B20 VTEC is a great setup. Only problem is, there isn't really a stock spec to go off of, you pretty much have to wing it and use torque specs and the sort from other vehicles. You have to buy all kind of parts from different cars to build it which becomes a hassle. Just stick with one motor, instead of hybrid monsters. B series is good because yes it's old but parts are a little cheaper and there are by far lots more parts to play around with. Just my $.02 Good Luck
