Question B20 Stroker?

Anybody ever built a B20 stroker? I'm looking to get a new car soon, and up until recently I was going to get something like a 5.0 liter Mustang or a LT1/LS1 F-body. Due to insurance reasons, however, there's no way I'd be able to keep either of these on the road (just got 2 tickets for Unsafe Start/Improper U-turn doing donuts in a friends 328i). So now I'm looking to get a Civic hatchback, probably an Hx or Cx (doesn't get much cheaper to insure than that) and dropping in a fully built naturally aspirated B series. Just wanted to know if anyone had ever stroked a B20 and what rod length did you use as well as where did you get the crank/rods for it? I'm also considering throwing a VTEC head on it while I'm building it.

never heard of a stroked b20 block because its got a pretty long stroke as is. also dont plan on boring it either because the cylinders are already pretty thin. but a b20vtec is a very powerful motor when done right. you could achieve 250hp to the wheels if you know what you are doing. more is possible but then youd start going into full race territory and it would no longer be a daily driven car.

I just replied to your other post. I was sayin that you can probably get 84.5 mm sleeves for it. That should be atleast 2.2 rite there.
