I think the b20a5 from the Prelude is a completly different motor from all the other bs. I read somewhere that it's like the worst b motor honda ever made.
Edit: Here is a pic of how different the b16 head and the b20a block are. I can't seem to find anything specfic about the b18b head but I think the bolts are about the same as the b16. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Are you talking about a ZC motor? The DOHC non-VTEC d series? No I don't think that'll work either similar situation as the previous situation. Let me do some checking though.
