With my not big budget i think best way will be B20Z1 from CR-V with 2.0 147 hp and then swap to it VTEC head. What you think about it? I can found B20Z1 with ECU, transmission etc for $1000 in Moscow... Does anybody try to swap this engine to Accord 3gen?

Im going to do a B20B/VTEC swap but to tell you the truth you would be better off just getting a B20B with the VTEC head already on it(IMO). For the simple reason that even if you do the swap, then the VTEC head youll be spending alot of money.

Try these sites, they have B20B/VTECs for sale

This is just to give you an idea of what a B20/VTEC is capable of

Ive got other sites of B20Bs in car. Let me know if you want them

or you can aleways use the whole b20b motoer, but a b18b intake manifold on it and slap a turbo on it, it will be way faster than a gsr motor (b18c) and half as cheep

PRI is Place Racing Incorporated, the only company that makes mounts for any B series motor to be put into our cars.

Hey i think the PRi site is down. Talk to OSS or honda VTEC about where to get the mounts.

As far as the sites on the B20B motor ive put the links in another thread

88Lxi68 has them already but the motor is not in yet.... The run $625US at PRI but you can probably find them a little cheaper. I know OldSchoolSwap just recently bought some local in florida i would ask him. I am planning on doing some sort of B16 this winter so we will see. I know a lot of people have talked about swaps but only a handfull have actually done the swap.....

The B20b/z with turbo is not a good idea tough... you need to resleeve it for some good boost....

SO, if you plan to resleeve the B20Z, just buy a B18B for half the price and re sleeve that one instead.
