Default VTEC conversion
Hey my friend is looking at going VTEC to his 91 Prelude Si. I'm assuming since its a B series motor he can just swap whatever head he wants (plus wiring, etc.) Input please?

its actually a B20z1 or something but they're nowhere near compatible with B18s, B16s, etc... and no it's not the same as the motors that come in CRVs either.

You can do a b20VTEC on the motor. The blocks are probably the worst B-series ever made though.

www.ludespeed.com used to have a write up on it, maybe it's still there.

i was unaware 130-140ft/lbs of torque put a car into "toqure monster" territory.
