Will a GSR crank girdle fit on a B20 for CRVTEC? If so what else will I be able to use off my GSR bottom end that will be best for my B20 (oil pump, pickup tube, water pump? oil pan?) Thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A gsr girdle will fit a b20 block with modifications, but you'll also need to use the gsr pickup, oil pan, windage tray, etc.. to make everything fit. the gsr oil pump is the same as a b20 so no advantage there. i wouldnt advise using the gsr water pump, unless you'll be turning lots of Rs with that b20, but remember, if you use the b20 water pump, use a b20 timing belt, and vise versa.
good luck,

Thanks, what modifications have to done exactly? Is it cuz the has different size mains. Who would you have do this modification?

its because one of the main caps on the b18c is shorter than the b18a/b/b20
so it has to be milled to fit.

 

Can I use the shorter main cap off my B18C or will it not work on the B20. I'm trying to get around milling but if i have to that's what i'm goin to do.

i thought there was no milling just needed the 3middle main caps and everything below that.baffle,oil pick-up windage tray,oil pan and such.

 

why dont you just get the z10 girdle instead

 

Does the z10 girdle go right over the B20 mains? What bolts would i use? GSR

 

well, im not sure if the b18c caps fit in a b18a/b/b20, but if they do
you would have to have them align honed so that they match the journals on
the block.

rainforest: if you just use the b18c girdle then you have to mill down the #3 main
cap on the b18a/b/b20 to fit it properly.
