How about a 164 with a B20? 140-160

I'd agree too--the B30 is a terrific motor. The PRV--not so much unless it's been cared for in an over the top manner.
To answer the original poster's question--putting a B20 in place of the B30--which sounds reasonable at first--and has been covered here recently--there's way too many things to change to make it worthwhile--and then what do you have?--an oversized, overweight 140 without the smoothness and torque of the six--that's what. -- Dave
