just wondering wut i would need to change or get . or is it a complete swap

 

should bold right on...and you should be able to use your ls ECU to depending if its obd1 or 2......what your going to need to use still is the LS transmission tho.! good luck!

 

why swap out non-vtec for more non-vtec? i say keep one o' the blocks and get a b16head/tranny and have a little fun =^.^=

 

b20 and b16 head.... with a b16 tranny!!!!

 

i had that same question exact one month ago.
i have a 95 ls was planning on getting a b20 for $600 flate
and was planning on using my ls tranny.
i had a change of mind so i went ls.vtec
swap with a 2000 b16 head and vtec kicks in hard.
ur choice ur money. but b20 does feel good

 

a friend of mine has a DA B20 vtec with a GSR tranny 11.3:1 compression and some boltons.....he owns mustang GT'S all day.....makes 231whp on 91 octane gas....all this under 5 grand....

 

LS DISTRIB. WONT POP INTO B2OC HEAD ANYONE HAVE ANSWER???

 

whats the hp difference in the two motors stock? i tried searching but got tired of digging through the crap.

 

B20 has 146HP and 133 lb ft.

B18a has 130hp and 124lbft.

JDM B18b has 145hp and 127 lbft.

Got the specs from http://www.hmotorsonline.com

 

would i have to change the intake manifold

 

From what I've heard, and correct me if I'm wrong, I heard you have to switch over to a LS manifold for the engine to fit in the engine bay. I'm getting a B20 very very soon. If you haven't got one by the time I recieve mine I'll let you all know.

 

kool thanks

 

i have a b20 v-tech with GSR head and GSR tranny... it makes mad torque but i was wondering if b16 or GSR head would be best for 1/4 drag racing...

 

bumperzz

 

use the b20 bottom end... with an ls head and intake manifold.

 

i have a b20 block, gsr head/intake, ls trans, .... and turbo!!

before i boosted, the b20 gsr was nice, it had the torque in low rpm's that made a difference (with a few bolt ons)

i suggest, first get b20 running NA with larger injectors and fuel management

then boost later
