B20/turbo???
ok my search for an Ls long block has ended(the one i was gonna buy was total junk)...i was thinking about goin B20 from http://www.hmotorsonline.com
what would i have to change to put this in my Cx hatch,and run turbo on it?
are they the same as Ls?
i would have to get an intake manifold and harness...but...are all the sensors on the manifold the same as Ls?
when buying a Jg edelbrock manifold or Skunk2 would i get Ls or B20?
will a 95 Dx harness work on the motor?
what clutch/flywheel would i get?
Ls tranny will work right?
i'm also gonna sleeve the block,pistons,head gasket,ARP head studs,turbo cams,cam gears,770cc injectors,intake manifold,hondata 2b,ACT 6puck clutch,lightened flywheel,and anything else i would need...someone help me...this is the setup i wanted to do on my Ls motor if i could find one...but i can't so i wanna buy B20...someone answer this!!!

Re: B20/turbo??? (hybridRhatch)
What I have done/ know so far:
I bought a B20B4 block. I have a GSR head. so I've opened the motor and swapped some brackets....
In a cx hatch? don't know fo sure, but it's the exact csame block as the B18B w/ larger bores. (i.e. LS)
Manifold? If you keep the B20 head, then yes, you need the one for the B18B, it's the exact same head.
Sensors on the manifold are the same (IAT sensor) all the others are on the block/ TB
95 DX harness work? yes, in theory it should work, but the B20 intake has longer runners, some of the plugs may be short
Clutch/ flywheel? take your puck, most people like Type R flywheel w/ act clutch; any B series will work
LS tranny work? Yes, but get the diff if you are going to all this trouble
NOTE: the block mounts on my B20 engine, upper driver's side, would not work with the B series standard mounts, but I hd an old GSR block to pull from. I also didn't get a distributor or flywheel (AT car)
I'm doing the exact same thing right now, I'm waiting for my head gasket to come in (no sleeves):
B20B4 block/ GSR Head
Skunk 2 intake/ 440 cc RC
Stock TB/Fuel rail
Crane HI-6/Magnecore Wires
2mm In-line PRO head gasket (9:1 CR)
T3/T4 Turbo w/ IC, BOV, Tail Wastegate
Hondata Stage 4b
I'll post pics when I get going
