.:si:. · Post by **.:si:.** » Tue Dec 04, 2007 9:10 pm

Just curious to the pro's and con's of each one...

Anybody recommend one over the other for boost??

Problems with one or the other?

Thanks

Is it just me or does this seem like the answer is obvious?

here is the deal.

if you are looking to really build a motor, IE sleeving and prepping for big boost, just use an LS block. the only reason you shell out extra money for a B20 block is for the extra 3mm bore. BUT, if you are going to sleeve the motor anyway for insurance/so you can take a lot more boost, just do it to an LS block. the motors are identical except for the bore.

there really is 'no replacement for displacement' when it comes to making torque, so the bigger bore will produce better numbers, the route you go just all depends on your plans and budget

ls block=50-100 bucks

crv block=250-300 bucks
