The b20a5 is out of the late 80's preludes and is no way related to the b20b/z out of the crv. Because of that it is impossible to mount up a vtec head simply because it won't mate up.

When you're talking about the Prelude B20 engines, then you're SOL as far as adding VTEC goes...

ok.... well this sucks. so what can i do to get maximum horse power and torque. or take away the rev limiter, the rules for the speedway says i can not use a turbo or supercharger and has to be naturally aspirated. does anyone know of any websites that i can look at get some parts? or where i can get a stroker kit or a good set of cams..... i need all the power that i can get.
