My friend just killed his motor in a ls teg,with 210,000 on it ..He was just wondering what would be better to replace the currently motor in the car.... The choices are b16 ,b20 or b18 (non vtec), money is a issue thats why i didn't say b18 vtec.People are say that the b16 will not pull the weight of the teg good, but I think the b16 will out run the b18 or b20,unless you have them built..

B16 is a waste of money going into a dc chassis, either stick with the LS (B18A/B) or go with a gsr (b18c1), If not, for a portion of the gsr price you can build a LS/VTEC.

Definitely go with the B18 it's going to have the necessary torque to move the car, the B20 would give you to much damn nose weight. Like Krucial said, down the road you can do an Ls/Vtec converiosn on it or even better turbo it.
