Like rynberg said, research the 20B forum as this conversion takes A LOT of work and money. It isn't someone can do easily.

I am curious as to what reason you want a 20B.

Not to rag on anyone's business, but those 20B's you guys posted links to on Ebay are crap. I've asked both of the sellers, and each time I've found they only have # series or A series motors. 99.99% of people go w/ 20Bs to make considerably more power. You don't want an early series motor if you're gonna do that. You'd want a C series at the least. C & D are damn near impossible to find. And I coulda sworn I saw a pic of an E series ONCE on yahoo Japan... sexiest thing ever

Those engines are fine. Even the C or D series engines will need dowel pinning if higher hp is to be desired. There are a tons of guys running the lower series engines making a ton of hp.

20b parts

Hi guys we have just finished our 26bpp build here in SA. We are now manufacturing plates, eccentric shafts and counter weights which is cheaper than buying a 20b rolling.

you did a 15 year thread bump. I doubt anyone here will buy anything from you.

@Ledwicks_26b_build,

Are you representing a business that is attempting to sell 20B engine parts on the forum?

Just a post letting guys know you dont necessarily have to buy a complete 20b engine or buy the parts from eBay. There is a cheaper way of buying billet plates, eccentric shaft etc... same guys who did the engineering for our 26b motor.

@Ledwicks_26b_build, I am confused. Your initial post stated, "We are now manufacturing plates, eccentric shafts and counter weights which is cheaper than buying a 20b rolling." Then you followed up by stating, "...same guys who did the engineering for our 26b motor."

So what is correct? Are you making these parts, do you represent a business making these parts, or commenting that a business built your engine?
