ls/vtec or b20/vtec?

[*EFilliated*]

how will a ls/vtec due against a b20/vtec wit bad rings?
both have same head but just 2 diffrent blocks, both blocks are stock
wat due you suggest?

[ducky1177]

i suggest you learn to spell
:goodjob:

other that that i dont think a stock ls is made to handle vtec

[Barefoot]

google

[*EFilliated*]

well if a stock ls aint strong enough to handle vtec how is b20 strong enough? only cuz`it has more torque?

[Romeo]

So you're asking if they were put against each other in a race? or what?

[*EFilliated*]

yea. i had a b20vtec, but my block went out, so im undecided on if i should get a b20 or an ls. i cant find a b20 anywhere but find ls's everywhere.

so yea im trying to figure out wat i should do. ls/vtec or wait for a b20 to fall out the sky.

but i dont got time to wait, i need my car regardless

Just get the LS and put the B20 pistons.:D haha.

well wat ive been told is that i just wont have as much torque. but it should be the same

[FasTech]

You can't find a B20? Last time I checked, TigerJapanese.com had plenty for like $600ish and I know passwordjdm had them for a special. Like two for $1100ish or something.

Yeah, i mean there's nothing wrong with either setup. You can find B20's easy. But usually not just a block or head by themselves.

Bet he would take $1500

Has high mileage but just replace minor things and you should be good to go.

[Romeo]

That car is for sale on here. Lol. The Black GSR with no title.

yea i know i can easily find a longblock b20 but i dont got the money for it. well see how it goes

[Grimm Reeper]

Are the walls scared and or cracked on the B20 :thinking:

[Captain-Obvious™]

b20 all the way and they're very easy to find.. and relatively inexpensive

[Tech5]

Why do you need to know how to spell on the INTERNET ITS SERIOUS BUSSINESS

sheesh, all hes asking is whether or not since he had a B20/Vtec before, if he replaces the bottom end with a LS bottom.. will it run better or worse?

[Octavious]

stock LS =81 mm bore
stock B20=84mm bore

other then that , they are the same.....Same rods,Same crank..same same same :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah:

[Master Shake]

other that that i dont think a stock ls is made to handle vtecwhy wouldn't the ls block be able to handle vtec? gotta run an oil line for the solenoid, but other than that. it should be fine.

i see the ls/vtec setup all over the place.



and really, if you're going all motor, then i'd do a b20/vtec with block guard, if boosted then ls/vtec w/ blockguard.

[FRYLOCK]

b20

[*EFilliated*]

b20

yo i seen you at my school, i have a black coupe wit purple wheels, ur shit looks clean.

[xdavidscenex]

[Tensa_Zanget]

b20 ftw man!

[RBS]

b20 ftw man!


b20 shortblocks are hard to find in good condition, let alone complete.



we settled for a LS bottom end, will be building this weekend :D
