The B20VTEC discussion thread

[Of berry]

I'm about to drop a b18 head and b20 bottom in my ek sometime this month. Just wondering which arp head studs do I use?

Also I've purchased skunk 2 throttle body, intake mani and a full fujitsubo exhaust from headers to the exhaust. Wondering if there are any other cheapish parts I can buy before tuning to make it worth it.

What are you doing regarding gearing?

[Of berry]

Sorry, this is my first time going this far into modifying a car. I haven't looked into gearing so I have no clue. Do you mean the gearbox? If you do then I have the normal gli box

[Vvvtec]

A Dseries box?

[Of berry]

Oh, just did a quick google and realised its engine based not chassis. I have a b16 conversion in my gli. So I have the b16a2 box ATM.

[Vvvtec]

I was going to say lol. Nice, the ratios in that are fairly good

So gearbox wise I should be fine? I'm not planning to do anything else after the tune. Mostly for street use. Once my brothers car is complete I may occasionally hit the track with him.

Can I just use the arp b18 head studs?

Yes, you will be fine with that gearbox, perfect for the street. If you have the funds, adding a nice LSD will really compliment the setup, especially on the track.

As for head studs, I have no idea lol

What are you having problems with?

There is more than one way to do it, the easiest way is using the rear ports off the block - you will need to buy the fittings or some people go to the effort of welding bungs on the rocker cover, just make sure they are baffled from behind.
