B20 Vtec timing belt?

Hey guys, I'm in the process of building a CR-Vtec. I'm running a stock B20B bottom end with a stock B16 head and water pump. My question is, which timing belt are you likely to run and how many teeth?

Are you following a guide/DIY of some sort? I was always under the assumption that you use the belt for the head. Your guide/DIY should tell you.

belt matches water pump. you would use a gsr/itr timing belt if you're using a vtec water pump.
