B 20 is from a Honda CRV. That is the only place you will find one. get one from98+ I believe, after 2002 the crv engine goes to a chain and will be completely different.Otherwise you will need a b18 or b16 head to make the crv block a vtec. but that will take a lot of $ and labor.

I concur with the previous answer, the B20 can be found on the first generation USDM CR-V. The new engine on the current generation (2nd and 3rd generation) CR-Vs are the K series.

Make an LS vtec. b18b1 add a gsr head/vtec parts.

You can find a b20 engine from a CRV. You want to get a v-tec head from a vtec engine - b16 or b18. You mate a vtec head to your b20 bottom block. It's easy, but the work is long. Your best bet to make the most horsepower is to get a b16 block. It will give you the highest compression.
