no the crv motor is b20b and i believe the jdm b20a is just a hair over 140 hp i think 143...not sure the crv is like 133 hp and the crv doesnt bolt right into this chassis. i wanted to keep it as stock as possible for now. from research the jdm b20a is better than the usdm b20a5. so i figured i would go that route plus the cost wasnt something to argue with since it comes complete engine, trans, axles, ecu, all the wiring from behind my dash to the ecu, exhaust downpipe, engine mounts, both fuse panels and the engine harness is all included as well as all engine components. they even threw in the original fuel pump.
