Wrong!!! Get it tuned and you should be alright.

shut up and quit regurgitating info that you've read somewhere and can't prove.

I'm fairly sure you need to use the gsr/itr timing belt. You should also use the gsr oil pump as well as the water pump.

I have a friend w/ a stock b20 bottom end and b16 head w/ itr cams and a ls trans in his eg and runs 14.5's all day w/ over 35k miles on the thing and he drives it for work every day.

If you don't want to split a sleeve tune the thing well because detonation is what kills the b20 block
