If you have to ask, you probably don't have the money to do it.

And LOL at a K-swap not being expensive.

if its going to be your DD i say go with the K20......they run hard and you can get 100k+ out of the motor.....Your going to make more power with the LS Vtec.....hell a stock LS block with a B16 head will give you around 180hp to the FW.......get a few supporting mods and a turbo and your up in the 4's with little to no effort

so if your going to drive it every day......K20

If you want to make Corvettes look stupid....LS Vtec TURBO

he said 180 crank horse power (or word from word "180hp to the flywheel) which is about right. 180 bhp turns into about 145-155 whp.

If it was me,id build and turbo that bitch. Dont do D-series (no offense to the D's out there). think smarter,not harder. To get the power you'd put down with a b or k,you'll have to work twice as hard with a D.

Dont do a straight LS turbo. An LS head wont get you to 450whp,and you MIGHT get that with a good port job (might is the key word),if your going B,then do lsv or a gsr.

K series is what to get if you want good all motor power. Though it is expensive,its worth it (in my eyes). K's can make 200-250+whp on a bone stock block.

there is my two cents,i have more to add,but dont feel like typing.

yeah a ls vtec is going to be alot cheaper to build than a gsr.....and if your going to stay with the stock pistons and rods.....which is a pretty bad idea....the lower CR is going to be more boost happy....

LS block - B16a1/gsr head
