I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

well, the obvious answer is that B18B gets you torque and B16A gets you top-end, so which would you rather have?

Considering this I'm going to recommend that B18B. You say you're also considering FI so B18 is better than the B20 for that should you choose down the road.

linkage, axles, mounts, throttle cable, etc. We don't have a writeup on this? If not, check out HAsport.com, that site was very useful when I did my swap.
