Get the complete B16 swap and then find a LS shortblock to use. You get the better flowing head and shorter geared tranny.

Lsvtec works too, fuck the b16. b20 is a good choice too.

yeah bro get a complete b16 swap(tranny and all) then get a b20z... bolt the head on and tranny,... and ur set... if I was you I would upgrade the valve train too if you can.. and the valve relieves need to be opened a little on the b20 pistons.. its porlly cheaper to get a whole b16 swap than trying to peice it together... ran a 13.6 in my crx w/ stock b16 head and b20z bottom... but upgrade the valve train cuz I droped a valve before....goodluck

Yea, to bad its not that easy. Do you have any idea what you are talking about. How is the head going to get the oil supply for VTEC, with out some sort of line (or even the GE MFG Vtec Kit). There's a lot more involved other than just bolting on the damn head. There's machine work to be done, Clearances to be checked and so forth.

93gsIntegra - I suggest swapping in a B20Z, has 9.6:1 CR, 140Hp, 133 TQ. With some minor bolt ons (clutch, flywheel, I/H/E) it'll scoot.

Sadly I have a B20b with 8.8:1 very very low

turbos are your friend brian, better yet you should just give me that shit and ill give you an LS with a ported head.

Get on AIM, i need to talk to you bout those parts.

 

[brian11to1]
