Right now i have a 92 integra ls with a 97 b20 block and 00 b16 head, ys1 tranny
everything is stock except for an intake
and from what ive read its not really safe to rev high on the stock block..
do you guys think i should build the block? and how?
or after a while just get a different block? and which?
thanks for all the help fellas!

 

How high do you wanna rev it?

From what I've heard it would be best to put a GSR crank in it. You could always bore it out and sleeve it. That would be best. I think 8k will be enough do you need more that that?

Take a look at the S200 bore, stroke and rod ratio. Ill try to find some specs on both. Or even look at the RSX-R or S for some ideas on how to build a reliable high revving 2.0

***And no I'm not saying the engines are the same***

 

I found this. Im look for more on the K20

8k would be perfect if staying with the b20 block is best... right now i shift around 6k cuz i dont know what is safe and i dont want to start breaking stuff
