b20 block + b16 head + all that needs to be changed or u wanna change + labour. its hard to quote the exact price cuz i've seen blocks ranging from 1.5k to 5-6k depending on whats inside. the cheaper ones being stock and the more expensive ones with better performance parts inside. b16 head also is quite bout 1.5k-2k if i am not wrong. my advice would be, get the cheapest ones u can find if u plan on building the engine urself. no point in buying an expensive b16 type r head or b18c type r head if u r gonna change the internals.

anyway, i remember seeing somewhere that the b20 conversion is about 5 or 6k. cant remember when or where i saw it.

No this particular car is not with Siong. It's a car that I'm buying and currently without an engine in another workshop. I don't think it's very nice to tow the car away to Siong since it's already in somebody else's workshop. I'm planning to do a clean & proper B20B + B18C combo so I'm studying the US route.

Siong is selling the kit but anybody else doing it?

Can't disclose more, sufficient to say that I didn't choose the place where the car's at.

If I get a B18CR, my thinking is not to modify it and just use it as a stock R. If it's not an R, then I can do whatever I want.

DeaconFrost,
1st thg's 1st....d current workshop whr ur car is in now,they r not familiar w a B20Vtec build or u think they r quoting u very expensive price?if it's either 1 of 'em or worst,BOTH,i won care much....might as well tow d car away 2 sum1 who knows dis kinda build w a reasonable charges rather thn suffer/regret la8......
n since u say d car has no engine(wat abt interior/wiring loom/ECU?)...it won b cheap....stock B20 bottom can go 4 as low as 800 right up to 2000...depend on market n who u know....n u'll need a DOHC VTEC head....cheapest wud b 1.5K 4 a stock B16A head(i think).....or try 2 go 2 Samurai Racing in Sunway...i know they haf alot of engine kosong lying on d floor....even a few complete Type R head..if u can afford dis,it'll b better......so,i'd say a budget of ard 5-6K is d ballpark figure 2 get a reasonably reliable B20VTEC...
gd luck

I didn't mention any price bro.

But since we're discussing price, I did ask the mechanic to collect a complete B20B block from Siong for RM600 since he's quoting almost double that price.
