b20 creativity

[ken06]

hey guys i have had my 2000 si for about a year now and really like the car, but i can no longer resist the urge to modify. i got a free b20b motor from my aunts totaled crv so i am thinking of doing a build since the tranny from my motor will bolt up and i have the ecu for b20. i am def. looking at an internal build to bring up the compression ratio for some higher revs and hopefully put anywhere from 215 to 250 to the wheels.

i have a build in my head but i really want to hear what you guys think i should do, i really do not like the idea of block guard so i was planning on resleeving and i also wanted to know if they made stroker kits and how much i can increase the cylinder size.

thanks, can't wait to hear the great input you guys can give me

the b20's i have heard have weak sleeves so you might need to change those out. but dont quote me on that, thats just what i heard

i've heard they can hold up to 200-220hp before cracking. so just to be on the safe side, i'd sleeve it, especially if you gonna be revving it past its stock redline. also, brian crower sells stroker kits for the b20. 92mm and 95mm stroke kits, but their a bit pricey. hope this helps out. goodluck with the build...

thanks guys, yea i def. was planning sleeving the block, i am not all about boring or stroking with stock sleeves.

any ideas on a set up? i was thinking eagle rods and crank with 11.5 : 1 wiesco pistons and a b16 head that is on my car now with a port and polish and skunk 2 stage 2 pro cams and camgears, skunk intake manifold and aem fuel rail and injectors, no doubt about hondata to go run this beast.

my B20 sleeves stock cracked at 12:1 compression and 178whp... on nitrous my other stock B20 cracked em at about 220-230WHP bottlefed... they are thin but we boost em all day too so..
