depends on the budget..you got a lot than get a k20..why do you want to get rid of the b16??take the money and do the block and get a turbo...i've learned that you will barely accomplish 230whp with all motor and you'll spend like 10 grand.... you can do a supercharger to if you want...just think about doin the b16 up cause its a descent platform

i would use the money to turbo your b16a2 but if you have to have another engine w $2000 b18c1or b18c5 really your best bet going w a k20 will caost you way more then what you have
