Allright so i am new to the site but not to hondas. Unfortunitly i am new to b-series. I have only built single d's and one dual d and one sw20 so bear with me.
i just aquired a b18a1 ls block from a 91. got it with low compression most likely shot rings so i am going to do a full rebuild on it.
but i want to know what everyones thoughts are on building the ls as is or go ls-v with it..i know this is a non-vtec site but im sure most of you have had experiences with both.
also how reliable is the bottom end what pistons/rod combo ect... would you guys/girls recomend. im not going to touch the head until i decide on which route i want to take. this is going in my 91 crx hf and the motor in it is fine so i am not on any deadline i am going to take this slowly for reliability. my goals are 250-270whp. nothing to outrageous.
so any input on what you would do and what parts.
thanks
stuart
