Just Wonderin About The Old Ludes

[Capinkillmore]

I Know that old preludes had a type of B20, but no one ever says that anything about usin the block for swaps. If you just you the block wouldn't it work the same as any other block ....... I mean you don't have a wire harness on the block so really I would think it would be the same as a CRV block.... Not to mention you can by one for 50 bucks.

i remember reading that the old prelude b20 block was like that bastard child of all b series and doesn't follow any of the rules for more recent ones

THE b20a5 found in 3rd gen is the worst motor ever. . the r/s ratio is terrible and you can not put a b series vtec head on it. pull your pants down and shit on that motor.
