Man, you are an offically an idiot in my book.


Well to answer the question, no b20's come with a vtec head, as 91civicDXdude said.

The best head to but on be either the b16 or b18c5 cause they flow the best. But just because you have a vtec head doesn't mean that you can go and rev your motor to 8,200rpm either.

Re: b20

Yes, just a straight B20 swap is still worth it.

b20

Hey Kris if you were in my shoes would you keep it a stock b20 or would you put a vtec head on it? Is it really that much of a difference?

And then try to be a little more low key - clearly you've agitated the regulars.
Also, like they said, there is no such thing as an ls-vtec head. ls-vtec is normally an ls motor from a teggy with a vtec head, which is therefore called a ls-vtec.

Yeah, watch who posts what.....90civic90 asks the initial question, Americanfeagle03 later replies (wrongly), Kris sets him straight, Hybrid1990crx calls Americanfeagle03 an idiot, then 90civic90 replies "hey man i never said i was an expert i am new at this you don't have to be an a** about everything." Guess he forgot to change names. The funniest part is he wrongly replies to his own topic.
