I was searching around the internet and found an article on this engine.
How much different is it then a B18b1 in an LS.
the article said it was almost the same engine just bored out a little more. If so would this be a good engine to put into a higher mileage LS?
The B20Z has 146 HP and like 133 lbs torque.
I like the little extra torque and horsepower from stock would be good for an integra.
Also they said a Ls intake would better suite the block because on the B20Z it has like a high rise intake(sticks up higher than the LS).
What do you think.
Buy a cheap high mileage 95 LS and drop this motor in it?

it is the same engine bored to 84 instead of 81, yes you gotta use your intake manifold, or lose the hood. the LS cams are better though from what ive heard,
Im putting a B20b into my teg when i finally sell my darn truck and buy the teg, but the b has lower cr and has 126hp but still 133 lbs of torque. if it ends up being around 400-500 more for the z than b then get the b and buy some 10.5:1 pistons if wanting all motor or if plan on turboing just get the B and be ready for boost already.
