I'd say screw that monkey poo(b20) and stick with the sleeved b18. Just think of the boost you could throw at it .

B20 cylinder walls suck. Period. They will not last.

B18 sleeved = more displacement opportunity & increased engine life (by far).

Are you planning to boost or run high cr? LS with sleeves
If niether B20 would work, sleeved LS would be better but more $$

actually the b20 has the thickest sleeves of all the b series, so they dont suck. and for the price of a b20 you can get a sleeved ls, thats whats the best part
