I blew my ls and am going the b20 route, i am doing research on my own and notice the compression is real low so far, it prob wont handle more than 15psi on the turbo im usuing (t3/t4 57 trim), the sleeves are weak....its just like the LS just .2 litres bigger....
BUT does anyone have personal experience or any inside scoops, how they do with turbo, b20-vtec, good links, good write ups anywere i can read etc...or just opinions and info they wouldnt mind sharing just want to learn and sponge in info.

The b20 sleeves are so week you probably shouldent boost it. They wont hold any power at all. ::)
Its all in your tune, and how long you beat it for. Good tune, and dont go road racing it for 3 hours, or do 5th gear wot pulls and you will do just fine at 15 lbs.
-
yah im thinkin i get a real good tune on a dyno for no more then 10 psi for now, and down the road sleeve it and make something with real O0 balls
-
freind just blew 1 366hp eagle weisco but it rall 11.1 consistant
-
did he have the sleeves done?....11.1 ftw
-
the sleeves handle more than you think.
I know I was joking.
-
my B20B is just fine...
-
my B20B is just fine...
not according to internet bench racers. Shitz like blown up yo.
-
mine did fine on 15 psi daily rapeage
-
my B20B is just fine...
Its also a slow N/A motor, B20s crack sleeves just like all B-series motors
-
i found an LS i think i might buy up again long block for 350, 84k and its a 2000
-
it's the head and bottom end not just the block, if you find me an ls for less then 350 shipped lmk with less then 84k damn

Dont pay attention to him hes a dumbfuck that drives a POS WRX

Thats a very fair deal for the mileage. Most ls motors have 220k miles on them and need machine work
-
yah im happy i guess someones lookin down on me and givin me a second chance cuz i feel like thats a real good deal and the guy offered to drive it all the way down for an extra 10 but i said ill meet him half way
-
My friend has used the same B20 block for 4 years now in his drag car. 275whp NA. AFAIK he never fucked with a block guard, and revs the piss out of it. For boost I'd rather go with an LS if I was aiming over 300whp. If your b20 does let go, you're out enough time & money to have sleeved a B18 instead.
$350 really isn't bad, and you also have to consider regional pricing. It's similar to how Civics are 2x the price 2 states away from California. However if you're going to have it machined and shit, a beat-up block will net the same results for less money.
-
yah i feel u i thinkin im gettin a deal though
-
It's a pretty good deal if its shipped if you're oickin it up though that's another story

I think it should be free and oczc should owe everyone manifolds
-
if you have tha money than 350 isnt bad as long as its a legit motor here in texas i still see them go for 500 and i send thoughs people hate mail about there price and then offer them 200$ and most times they will take it hahaha
-
200 would b dope and hopefully this shit runs anyone think i should write up like a little Bill of Sale and ask for like start up waranty or like 15 day waranty type thing
