well putting the vtec head on the b20 block will make it a high compression set up....so u would either need a real thick headgasket like a 3mm or just build the bottom end with low compression piston and rods ....and u would need to get the head tapped for a oil line to supply the head with oil....so get a golden eagle ls/b20 vtec conversion kit....

Okay. If it was me....

Probe I-Beam Rods for B18/B20
Arias Forged Pistons, 84mm for B20, Low Compression.
B16A or B18C head.
Golden Eagle LS/VTEC kit, or similar.
3-layer bearings, such as Clevite Race, or ACL's for the re-build.
Might as well have it sleeved. Lots of choices there.....Darton's seem to be the choice....Or, get a DART block to start with.

Good cast turbo manifold for B-series Honda.
Edelbrock Victor-X intake manifold or similar, for the head you are running.
Ferrea Super-Alloy Valves, and Ferrea Valve Springs and Titanium Keepers.
Web Camshafts Turbo Cam, recommended for Application.
T3/T4 50 Trim Turbo, sporting a .63 A/R exhaust side.
I'd further that with some MFactory Transmission Parts, and be willing to turn the motor 10,500 RPM...

You'll need some good 750-800cc/min injectors, a Walbro 255 HP, and a fuel pressure regulator that will support 70 psi.
That should be good for about 500+ horsepower on that turbo, with fairly quick spool, and a very wide powerband.
Should run 9's....

Good enough?
