don't know bout the b20, but might b good. But ls with simple mods and B16 tranny, you should be set until your turbo. At which time I would probably go with an ls tranny.

ok i figured out what im going to do, im gonna get a b20 block and use a new b16 head with my b16 tranny and a chipped p28 ecu..now my question is what all do i need to do in order to make this reliable? Im going to have to drive it everyday. All the work is being done by a professional, and im gonna get an itr oil pump, but what else do i need to make this setup reliable?
