Since U've got the B20, and you got part of a B18c, I think now would be the best time to do a CRvtec- B20 block, with ur old B18c Head and cams. read up on it, Try the search

i did..tons of it too...its just that no one really recomends what crank to use...im just taking a guess here but it seems like most ppl stick with the stock b20 crank...and get internals for the b20....because the piston would stick out if i get gsr rods and pistons and all that right???? correct me if im wrong....so anyways.. i guess my question is...gsr crank?? or b20 crank??? ....

b20 crank. that's one of the advantages of b18a/b's and b20's is their longer stroke. you match the rods with the crank.
