Are you digging into my brain? Im gonna pick up one of those in the not so far future.

One thing about B series engines. The VTEC models come with those stock. If you add one to a LS you need a VTEC model Oil pan for extra clearance. So if it was to fit the A20 you would more than likely need a new oil pan to accomidate it.

Anyways I think that would be a waste of money for the A20, its cast Iron. THe B is aluminum so extra strength is always a concern with those.

yeah but extra strength never hurt anything either :D

im planning on a turbo and maybe some N2O on top of that so i wanted the bottum end to be as strong as possible. the stock oil pan can not be modded?

I dunno if you could modify the oilpan to fit, maybe add a 1 inch spacer.
Still I don't think there is a point on the A20. The B series has removable Cylinder walls that like to walk around under high rpm, high boost scenerios. THe A20 is a solid piece of Iron, you can't get much stronger than that when it comes to a block.

You should get ahold of Sean or JohnnyO to see what they think. They are the A20 Turbo experts.

About bottom ends, the only thing you need to worry about are the pistons and rods. With forged ones, the only thing you have to to is to _not_ rev the piss out of it, and it will last a long time. RPM's are in my opinion more dangerous than cylinder pressures, at least with a long-stroke engine like the A20.
