Default Whatcha think B20B motor for EM1

So I found this B20 for sale and wanted to see what yo guys think. I want to drop it in my EM1 for all 1/4 mile drag. The only thing I don't know is how a type r intake manifold is working on a gsr head. Also How can I disinguish OBD1 from 2....talking head wise. He said the Hondata has obd2 on it.

fully built B20 block ARP bolts and block guard (KMS)
Wiseco pistons 12:1
Skunk S2 cams or Toda Stg 3 cams both included
GSR intake installed now (makes more TQ)
Also included is a Type R intake (makes more HP)
Head P&P valves and springs with retainers
Jenvey ITB's included


Also included is:
MSD ignition box, Coil, and distributor, wires.
Hondata S300
Wrapped Header
AEM management

Tranny:
GRS with ATS gears, a Kaaz LSD, 4 puck cluch and DSS axles.

Motor made 244whp and 163wtq on the dyno with the Toda cams and Type R intake. Its got less high rpm power but wider power band with the gsr intake and S2 cams.





What would you pay?

ok, the thing is, if it has a Gsr intake manifold bolted up right now that means it is a p72 head, but the type r intake is for a Pr3 head so it won't bolt up. I would give $2,500-$3,000 for the whole swap.

X2.

To the OP, I wouldn't buy it at all, But that's just me. I will never buy someone else's project. You never know what "headache" you might be inquiring. You only know what the owner selling it tells you and without tearing the engine apart there's no way to know if everything he says is in there really is as well as if its been built correctly. Some people will lie to your face about stuff and not think twice about it.
