The B20 pulley is larger, but will likely work with a longer belt.

It will probably overdrive your alternator, and wear the bearings out faster, too. On the flip side, your AC will work better at idle since the pump will be turning faster.

I have set it up to the B16 one, and it is noticably bigger on the alternator side, at least .75" in diameter more.
