There haven't been (and probably never will be) enough people who have put 20B's into FD's for there to ever be a big online resource for exactly how to do it. Beyond that, there's really no limit to the different ways in which it can be done, and in most cases, one way isn't nessicarly better then another, they just offer different advantages and disadvantages.

However, if you're looking for more info about whats involved, follow this forum and read up on past threads. There's quite a bit here.

The swap is a custom process, and there really is no certain way to do it. However, if you are just looking for ideas, these sites have some examples:

MVA is gone, and hopefully Team Acosta will run a better business.

Is there any different models of the 20b motor. Like later year ones or anything like that?

This has been covered a few times before, but either way...

There were about 5,000 20B's made, all for the JC Cosmo in the 90's. There are four series:

1) 001 - 999
2) A001 - A999
3) B001 - B999
4) C001 - C999
5) D001 - D999

They're all the same base engine, but there were some small modifications done to them over time, partically between the first series and the "A" series.
