b20 block.....What car besides CRV?

[dbgtlord]

What other Honda has the b20 block that is being used for the b20vtec? I know the CRV has it. Some other people have told me that the oddyssey has it. True? What does have it?

the only other b20's out there is the engine from a 3rd generation prelude. but that engine won't work with vtec. the parts just don't bolt up right..

According to www.crvtec.com, that b20 from the prelude is garbage. :

not garbage..but useless to build up..

the b20 comes from the following

old prelude 2.0 sis
SMX
CRV (b20b / z)

close but i think youre wrong
2.0 lude si = B20A (useless crap)
CRV = B20B
SMX (JDM microvan) = B20Z (higher compression than B20B)

if youre going for b20-vtec then get whichever short block is cheaper. if youre just gonna put it in like an LS swap get B20Z because of higher compression=more power (marginaly)

My jdm b20b came from an orthio in Japan.
