What should I do with my B20 engine?
B16 engine head swaps are popular with VTEC being added to the non VTEC as a relatively simple and significant power hike, although a decent cam profile will virtually match this for top end. Some B20 engines respond better to more aggressive camshaft durations check your engine on a rolling road.
How does the intake work on a B20?
Intake flow the air during the suck phase from the intake filter and allow it to be drawn into the engine and mixed with fuel. Design and flow characteristics of the Intake can make a substantial change to fuel mixing and power on the B20.
Can a VTEC head be fitted to a B20 engine?
We have seen some tuners fitting a VTEC head to the B20 engine blocks to good effect, effectively transforming the engine performance and response. B16 engine head swaps are popular with VTEC being added to the non VTEC as a relatively simple and significant power hike, although a decent cam profile will virtually match this for top end.
What kind of manifold do I need for a B20 engine?
All B series Vtec manifolds will fit I have used stock B18, B16 and after an market 4-1 before i built my custom header, all fitted fine under the stock B20 sump.

When did the B20 engine get replaced with the K20A?
The B20Z and B20B engines were produced until 2001, when they were replaced with the modern K20A. Like the entire B-series, this engine is considered to be one of the most reliable and durable.
Can a B20B engine be replaced with a VTEC head?
However if it is serviced right, and high-quality motor oil is used, the engine may run for a while. There’s no sense making performance tuning of a regular non-VTEC B20B head, it is better to replace it with B16A/B16B VTEC. It will significantly improve efficiency, but creating a hybrid B20/B16 is a quite complicated task.

What is the compresion ratio of a B20 engine?
B20B3 128bhp@5500rpm 1973cc 9:1 Compresion ratio. B20Z3 128bhp@5500rpm 1973cc 9:1 Compresion ratio. The above are what i have found and may be wrong. Since 1997 the B20 has become a very common engine build in the states and is becoming a common engine buildin the UK.
