lsv or b20v

[b16eg684]

Supposedly The stroke on b20s suck and you can't rev them high unless you really build the block from what I've heard. Hopefully you can get a better answer from someone who's actually built one lol

i hope your talking about rod to stroke ratio...becuz ls/b20 cranks have the longest stoke equaling more power...please dnt post unless u know what u r talkin about

I herd that the b20 sleeves r weak but like he^^ said mayb sumeone that bilt one can give u a better answer

there are countless all motor HIGH compression 85mm stock sleeved b20's running just fine...as well as turbo stock sleeved b20's. any motor will/can blow or crack sleeves if not built and tuned properly...has anyone here ever heard of detonation????

neither. if honda wanted them to have vtec they would have, the cranks arent designed to rev higher then 7.2k sooner or later it will break built or not. yes people do it ye they have lasted a while but the money you spend on that doing it right u could have a nice gsr which has vtec and is a strong motor

smh!!! ls/b20 cranks are the same crank as a b16/gsr/type r...they just have a longer stroke. and its not the crank that prevents it from revving as high as its vtec counterparts its the rod bolts...ls/b20 rod bolts are the same as single cam bolts causing them to stretch over time. if ls/b20 vtec is so bad then are they the most common combination used???? 90% of the top shops/builders are running hybrid motors. FACT! any motor is only as reliable as the quality of the build/parts and tune!!!

x2 It was nice 5-6yrs ago when i first started seeing people do it but after reading all the BS that goes wrong I'd rather stick with something thats tried and true.

yea because your reading about ppl that take short cuts and never heard of quality parts, tuning, and any kind of measurements and torque specs.

There are no major differences between a ls block and a b20 except the bore size. Me and my friends have had lsvtec set ups and b20vtec reving 9+ on stock sleeves all day. Forced induction is another story you have to sleeve them for them to last. B20s do have smaller cyclinder wallS then a ls that's why ppl say the are weak but it's no big deal unless you are planing to run mad boost or nitrous. I had my b20 block bored out to 85mm no problem on a allmotor set on stock sleeves.

THANK YOU!! atleast sum1 here has sense

If youR running the - fittings on your lsvtec you should be good Its those home made ass home depot lines to be affraid of that ppl try to make to save money.

just thowin it out there up to him to make decision but u want to look at both sides. ive been ls v turbo, i trust my gsr over ls v anyday with reliability. i hated the external oil line deal with the whole plug in the head.. just my opinion though. plus the tq gains you get really arent much worth it? maybe 10-15 over GSR?

ummmm...that is a big difference!

lol ^^^

ummmm...that is a big difference!

uhhhhhhh the cranks are different check the link, r/s is different on all 3 motors so your telling me the cranks are all the exact same. 10-15tq is not worth it IMO

I'm not saying don't do it sure a good build will last but if your going to spend it why not doing something else..

b20v

If you woulda read my post it said that the r/s ratio is diff and they have the longest thro compared to vtec cranks...READ!

And to ur last comment...u can't really say "if ur gon spend it why not do sumthing else" because then its preference...sum1 may like b16's others may like straight Ls, and others may like or prefer a H. Its where you will make the most power/performance out of a set up

ok but the stroke makes the cranks compeltly differnt. im over it.. its up to him to decide

[jmartinez1228]

Just put a fuckin v8 in it and you can have all the power and tourque you want lol

[evo-mentalites-cc]

just get a b16 or a gsr.. if you going to do a b20 or a lsv no matter what and leave them stock then i would go with the b20 vtec if ur gonna build it i would do lsv with some pr3 pistions up to u..

[cabesa]

thank u every1 for all the opinions

[civiceg203]

lsvtec allday

[YoMo-dc]

Poor mans type r all day lol.but go b20vtec or gsr motor with ls crank type r pistons

[cabesa]

i have a jdm b16 in my new hatch now and its slower than my eg coupe with the ls

this nigga webb loves his Ls/V's hahah
