Doesn't a longblock from them include manifolds?

they usually include the intake manifold and the upper portion of the ex. manifold. The b20 intake manifold is too big for an ef, and it sucks. Find any LS intake manifold from 90-01, and for exhaust either get a header or an oem ex. manifold from a GSR. Couple options for wiring though. If your planning on just doing basic bolt ons to the the motor I'd go obd0 just cause its so easy. 90-91 LS ECU and Distributor, if your car is mpfi its plug and play, if your car is dpfi just do a mpfi conversion and it'll work the same. If your ever planning on boosting, or serious all motor I'd go obd1, get a 92-95 LS ECU 92-01 distributor, OBD0-OBD1 jumper, and a four wire 02.

I loved my b20, and it was the low compression usdm version(b20b), your gonna love that JDM b20. I ran mine OBD0 with an LS tranny, it was my daily driver and ran consistent 14.3 @97 with basically "free mods"

my plan is to boost the b20, i wanna boost my s2k but thats jus a scary thought if anything was to go wrong on my s2k, i have a obd1 gsr intake manifold from my las swap so thats one less part i have to source, what about mounts? i read somehwere on here that the b20 mounts are different or such, im not sure as half the info here is really tedious to sift thru sometimes, i sifted thru tall kyles entire 50 page post and thats what lead me to jus go ahead and purchase the b20

gsr IM will not fit. Only an LS intake manifold will work. Any b-series mount kit should work, but you still might need various mounting brackets to go with the kits.

by the way this is my first swap completely on my own, me and my friends swapped my eg civic with obd1 gsr but that was like 2 years ago and with my stoner memory i dont remember ****, i am jus bored and have this car sitting in my driveway so i figured instead of spending 7 g's boosting my s2k i want b20 turbo in the ef for fun, heres pics of the car, there seems to be alot of useless topics concerning the b20 swap in ef using the search feature
