The B20B or B20z Engine from the Honda CRV is not a very good platform if you are looking at building a serious engine. These engines were not produced the same as the B16a or B18c blocks with the same quality and tolerances, So inherently the castings differ alot and tend to be very weak! Any good B18c block will be fine and in particular the B18CR. By changing the pistons to 84mm you will have a 2 litre engine which will benefit greatly from more Horsepower and Torque :)
What else can I help you with?
Can install a b18 transmission into a b20 engine?

Whats the difference in a b18 and a b20?

Where does a b20 motor come from?
The B20 motor comes from the Honda CRV. Answer The B20 engine is a Japanese engine used in the Acura Integra. They might use a different head but I know that block is the same. I believe that it's the B18 and all they did was remove cylinder sleeves to bore it out to a 2.0 I would have liked to put this engine in my 1991 Honda Civic Si Hatchback when I had it.
Can you replace a b18 engine and 5 spd tran with b20 enginetran combination Does b20 come with cable clutch?
you can use the same exact transmission for both engines. they mount up direct and will not cause any problems. the B18 and B20 engines are a direct swap for the most part, just plug and play. but basically if you have the B18B ecu and b18b tranny, intake manifold, distributer and so on.. you can swap everything over
How do you make a non vtec b20 vtec?
You have to acquire a vtec head either from a b16 or a b18 (gsr)

Where's the water pump located in a b20 engine
Can you swap a B20 in a 91 integra LS with stock transmission?
Yes. The 91 ls came with a b18 and that engine shares it's block with the b20. The new engine will drop in, but you will have to swap out some of the parts off of your old engine such as intake manifold, distributer, fuel rail, etc. The only modification you will need will be to extend the temp sensor wires to reach the new location by the thermostat housing as your old sensor is on the rear of the block. You can use your old motor mounts, transmission, harness, belt etc. on the new engine, and any bolt on modifications for the original engine will fit the b20 as well. The transmission bolts right up with no problems.
What are weaknesses of Volvo B20 Engine?
The generator and mechanical fuel pump can be problematic, but the b20 engine is overbuilt and incredibly strong, if you treat it right it will literally last you a million miles.
What is a map sensor and where on a 90 Civic with a b18 head and a b20 block?
Manifold absolute pressure sensor, being hondas run of calculations to adjust fuel to air ratio (called speed density) they require this to calculate amount of fuel to use. This is on top of the manifold dependant upon year b18 head, Da's had sensors located on firewall. B20's have the exact same head cast and cams as a b18b head. unless your refering to a vtec head there is no difference.
