What's wrong with a cheap b18b? More reliable and they put out good power/torque (better than b16a2)

Explain how a stock B20B/Z is less reliable than a stock B18B?

I'm kind of tired of seeing you give advice .... because it's bad 90% of the time.

It's got thinner walls because it's got one-piece sleeves and it's a B18B overbore. That does not mean it's less reliable for a stock application. It's not like people throw rods on stock motors without ******* up something proper (ie, shifting into 2nd at 100mph).

b20 is a bush motor...the cylinder walls are thin, and ls/vtec frankenstein set up isnt worth the money IMO, b16 or gizzer and toss in a turbo

Sure the b20 is fine. Just don't rev it higher than would a crv in stock form.

That's like all the newbies with stock b16's wanting to remove their rev limiters, so they can make uber power at 12,000 rpms like formula 1 cars.
