B16, B18, B20
By RaMsTeIn_
#177653 here is the deal, i bought a b16 head, and then after a couple of months sitting in my house i decided to sell it and stay with the intake manifold and to get some crower shafts and spring and retainers for the b20 head.

My question is, will the b16 intake fit the b20 head?

#177659 then what type of intake manifold do people put on their b20 stock head when they do the swap to a civic?

#177718 that intake doesnt look like the stock B20 intakes I've seen. They have all been way to tall to fit under a civic hood.

#177729 i believe all the 96 to 97 b20s (b20b) have the tall mani, and tyhe 98to99 (b20z) have the shorter one... but all of the jdm b20s i have gotten have been mixed... some have had either one despite engine code so im not 100% sure on this...

#177734 A newer member claimed he put a B16 Intake manifold onto his LS by removing some of the studs off his head. I never saw any pictures of his work, but thats what he claimed.

I have always read that b16/b17/b18c5 heads intakes manifolds wont bolt up to b18c1 heads or to b18a/b/b20b/z heads.
