if you have to ask then its not for you J/K you need a ton of custom parts to make it work...... www.k2rd.com mounts. alot of 20B conversions go into the $20k range..... you are much better off sticking with a 13B or just get a turbo II if you don't already have one. the conversion to 20B is a long expensive road and its def not for everyone. you need two things deep pockets and alot of patience

Figure on about 10-12k$ after the cost of the motor, if you do all the work yourself...

Read around in the 20b forum... Theres a lot of stuff you need to make it work...

By the way, I had a link somewhere where they would ship you a whole front clip for like $3500

$10k in parts minimum - more like $15k in parts.
That does NOT count labor!
