What you think of my setup? (NA B20)

Well i got a free b20 block with some fucked up pistons and some scratches on the clyinder wall so im gonna get the block overbored to a 84.5 or maybe even 85 which ever safe with the stock sleeves...i know the b20 sleeves are not the strong but remember this setup is basicly a stock NA b20 with some high comp pistons, street camshafts (either some 403s or some exospeed regrinds), Skunk2 IM and the regular bolt-ons. For my trans setup im getting a hydro GSR trans with exedy oem clutch and a ITR flywheel. So wutcha guys think about the stock sleeves being bored out a little...is it safe? and wutcha guys think about the CTR N1 pulley? my goals are to make around 150-160whp/130-145wtq...you think its possible with those mods?

thats a very realistic goal, but for me i would be on the safe side and get some sleeves. and instead of doing all that other stuff i would put on a VTEC head, and build the bottum end,make it real strong before everything else

b20a, b20b/z?

which one...

it makes a big difference...

if you're talking about the b20a, talk to some people on preludepower.com, and you'll find out the limits of the motor

sorry but that doesnt make sense. Many of the high output motors out there are using cams that are grinds from stock cams. Of course a new blank is pretty good itself, but it doesnt make a Grind cam any inferior as far as making power.
