"Note that all B20E/F blocks have a slightly different bore/stroke geometry (more square, shorter stroke) than the B20B and will be a better hi rev motor with a B20B head and high compression."

I may or not necessarily agree with your other points. But I'm going to have to clearly challenge your statement quoted above. Every stock B20 (and for that matter, every stock B18) I've ever seen, had a 3.15" (80mm) stroke.
