My current project...74 chevy truck.Had it about 2 years now...small block 350 and th350. Just had it lowered 3 weeks ago. Had b&m shifter installed along with push button start. Future plans is body work and red paint. Next summer I plan to replace the small block with a 5.3 Vortec and 4l60e overdrive transmission. I really in love with this truck. Some pics below and a video...the video is what I want my truck to look like

You have tobe a V8 buff to know the diff between engs.
There are 2 bolt mains and 4 bolt mains for chevy small blocks.
Chevy small blocks all look the same but come in diff sizes, most popular blocks are 305, 327,350 and 400. Stick to a 4 bolt mains 350 if you can get one.
Also look for older engines as they are " well matured".

Crate engs can be engs from the factory with all new parts even block.
"Shop crate engs" are re-milled blocks with new parts from stock to high horse power.
Crate engs are a bit costly, but if you just want to cruse or do a lil street power, then just rebuild what you got with fresh parts. Otherwise do a bearing and ring job with a lil camm.
There are too many factors to list and it all depends on your pockets. On the plus sides V8s are raw power and last longer that jap engines. You may spend some cash now but its cheaper in the long run.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

Specifications for the Red Top SR20DET
(Found on the 91-93 180SX & Silvia)
•Displacement: 1998cc (2.0 liter)
•Cam Type: DOHC 16 valve, chain driven cam sprockets
•Bore & Stroke 86mm x 86mm
•Compression: 8.5:1
•Horsepower: 205ps @ 6000rpm
•Torque: 203 ft/lbs @ 4000rpm
•Stock Boost: 7 psi
•Throttle Body Bore: 60mm
•Injector Size: 370cc/min
•Turbo Specs:
•Compressor: T-25, 60 trim 56mm BCI-1 compressor.
•Turbine: T-25, 62 trim 53.8mm 0.64 A/R turbine housing.
•Center Section: Journal bearings
•Performance:
The stock turbo will be safe to 13-15 psi. After that, the turbo is past its efficiency range, and power increases will fall off and are not worth the risk of turbo damage. The engine should produce 230-250 RWHP at safe boost.


Specifications for the Black Top SR20DET
(Found on the 94-98 180SX)
•Displacement: 1998cc (2.0 liter)
•Cam Type: DOHC 16 valve, chain driven cam sprockets
•Bore & Stroke: 86mm x 86mm
•Compression: 8.5:1
•Horsepower: 205hp @ 6000rpm
•Torque: 203 ft/lbs @ 4000rpm
•Stock Boost: 7 psi
•Throttle Body Bore: 60mm
•Injector Size: 370cc/min
•Turbo Specs:
•Compressor: T-25, 60 trim 56mm BCI-1 compressor.
•Turbine: T-25, 62 trim 53.8mm 0.64 A/R turbine housing.
•Center Section: Journal bearings
•Performance:
The stock turbo will be safe to 13-15 psi. After that, the turbo is past its efficiency range, and power increases will fall off and are not worth the risk of turbo damage. The engine should produce 230-250 RWHP at safe boost.


Specifications for the S14 Black Top SR20DET with VTC
(Found on the 95-98 Silvia)
•Horsepower: 220hp @ 6000rpm
•Torque: 203 ft/lbs @ 4800rpm
•Turbo Specs:
•Compressor: T-28, 60 trim 60mm BCI-1 compressor in T-04B housing
•Turbine: T-25, 62 trim 53.8mm 0.64 A/R turbine housing.
•Center Section: Ball Bearing
•S14 SR20DET's use a different ECU and harness, these are extremely expensive and hard to find.
•Variable valve timing system and a different turbo are the significant changes from the S13 SR20DET engines.
•The S13 uses a "low port" intake design vs. the S14 "high port" design.
•Performance:
The stock turbo will be safe to 13-15 psi. After that, the turbo is past its efficiency range, and power increases will fall off and are not worth the risk of turbo damage. The stock engine should produce 250-260 RWHP at safe boost using stock turbo. Upgrading turbo, fuel and rest of need parts will yield 300-375.


Specifications for the S15 Black Top SR20DET
(Found on the 99+ Silvia)
•Horsepower: 250ps @ 6000rpm
•Transmission: 6 Speed, Close Ratio
•Injector Size: 480cc/min
•Turbo Specs:
•Compressor: T-28, 60 trim 60 mm BCI-1 compressor in T-04B housing
•Turbine: Inconel turbine wheel. Cast divider wall between turbine discharge and wastegate.
•Center Section: Ball Bearing
•This engine is expensive and hard to get. If you are on a tight budget, please consider other options as the money you save from buying this engine can be better used to build up a really nice red top.
•Additions: 6 speed manual transmission. The 6 speed cannot be used on the S13 and S14 motors, and uses a different driveshaft. Speed sensor is located in the differential. The 6 speed is cool, but is not as strong as the 5 speed from the older cars. There is basically 6 gears inside the same housing that was designed to hold 5 gears. This makes the gears smaller and weaker, therby breaking more often.

don't have pics of the engine, but team Kamikaze rallied the B13 with an SR20 on twin webers for a couple of years..I should know...one of the webers was a loaner off my MGB
Basically you just need a custom intake manifold...........it's not rocket science

this is the car:
