Build B16A or LS Vtec?

[kevs_92gsr]

I have a 92 gsr integra. the B17 blew up and I got a JDM B16A and that spun a bearing. I am going to fix it and fully build it for an all motor car. somebody told me not to waste my time, just go LS Vtec! what do yall think I should do?

lsvtec and build it right the first time around with the proper durable materials that it should be built with. I suggest new bearings, seals, washers, gaskets. Along with the VTEC oil pressure kit that most place sells for 70-150 bucks depending on place along with the Z10 crank girdle or modified GSR girdle. ARP rod and head bolts are good, along with a VTEC oil and water pump and corresponding timing belt.

Last note: since your going NA and you have a cable tranny get the S1 tranny with your all motor build, very short gearing and cheap.


good luck.

Thats probably what I am going to do if I can ever find an ls bottom end!

go to www.thepartstrader.com and they have tons of them selling, or better yet check your local salvage yards, LS blocks are a dime a dozen and pretty cheap, don't pay more than 300 for the bottom.
