ls/ vtec question
Im thinking of putting a vtec head on my b18b of course to make a ls/vtec motor. The question i have is what head should i use b16, or gsr, or what, and what internals. I also want to know what all will I need to buy to complete the ls/vtec swap.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: ls/ vtec question
I posted in your other thread, that you made this exact point. go to www.hondaswap.com, they have very explicit instructions, or get last months, or 2 months ago SCC (borrow it from a friend) because they had a very good article, including all parts that you would need for the ls-vtec. Just know, that most are done in a hurry, incorrectly, and the life of the motor is about 30k miles, before it dumps.

To the original poster, use a p72 head. There are many IM that you can use, it's all preference. Pick up something like a 98+ JDM ITR header. Golden Eagle has a kit along with many others. If you have the funds, swap some new pistons and rods in, something like 11:1 CR. Throw a new valvetrain in with a CTR Intake cam. You'll have a fun little motor.

It has a smaller combustion chamber which equates to higher compression ratio.
