a B20/R hybrid will make more power ....if tunned right ..in somewere in the area of 220 hp 150 lb/ft of torque ....but it has to be built right ..... http://www.importbuilders.com

B20/ITR head will walk all over a similarly tuned ITR setup.
no joke.
a B20 GSR setup walked all over my GSR setup with similar mods.... very disturbing
but, it was a good learnig experience that there is not much of a replacement for displacement, so go visit http://www.importbuilders.com !

Other than doing a b20vtec swap is there anyway to gain torque in a Honda motor? Oh, Turbo-aaa..........

one word....... "blown".
ITR with jrsc is a wicked setup.
I've seen numerous ITR/jrsc setups that are in the 220whp/160ft-lbs realm.
It will be a street terror, with a torque curve similar to that of a medium displacement 6 cylinder. Plus, I've got the install down to about 4 hours, so I can help you drop it in. You just have to pick up the beer

resleeve your b18c5 block.
you have a bad *** crank already that can rev really high
with less worries about reliability.
oh yah..u already got the oil squirters too...

Re: b18c5 or b20 with a type r head...which will produce more power????? (paste)
ok so the answer would be. keep the itr block that says b18c5 and the vin numbers match.
resleeve the block stroke it out and you to can have the characteristics of a b20/vtec but with the reliability and the numbers that make it look like a lil b18c5. no one would know since you cant look inside the motor and you will can have both.
hmm sounds like a splendid i dea i think i will.

A good block for power is a GSR or Type-R block with an LS crank in it...
That is better than CRV block or LS because of the girdle.
But its not nec absolutely. We have taken both to 9500 RPM no problem

when you have stroked one of these wonderful gsr or type r blocks have you ever used a harmonic balancer pulley to absorb any vibration that may cause harm to the oil pump? if not how do you go about spinning these motors to 9500 with out causeing any detrimental vibrations to the crank that can wear an oil pump down?

lightened and knifed crank. completely balanced rotating assembly including clutch and lightened stock balancer/pulley. probe light weight rods. It will spin out real smooth.
If it was my motor I would not put a ls crank in a b18c the power band is much flatter and longer with the stock crank.

Assuming you rev both to the same RPM, the b20 will make more hp, but not much more.
However, if you rev a b20 to 8,400rpm like its a b18, everything is moving that much faster(due to the stroke), and the stress on components grows exponentially...
The smartest bet would be take wichever block is cheaper, and spend your money in flywheel, cams, header, and compression.
I bored my 289 .060 over and didn't notice a difference.
