an ls/vtec aint easy or cheap if you want it done right. expect another $2000+ after the cost of everything to get it running reliably. the b20 has better torque than a sohc, and a b18b.

haha u can get a auto trannys.. VTEC does add HP over the powerband...for LS/VTEC u have to get a ECU,wireing, and u have to have the head milled to fit the LS block...sounds hard buts its not...as for the b20 havent heard of a big aftermarket for that motor yet..(its still pretty new)
b16/b18s have the biggest aftermarket... and yes b16a2 is everthing(motor,tranny,ecu, wires,axles.... ill find out what all comes with it for sure)
b20 still pretty new? :hahano: any part made for a b18b will fit a b20 except pistons. having the head milled for an ls/vtec conversion? no.

seriously consider a b20
