ok i wanted to go ls vtec because my motor ended up fucked up and since i heard the torque is a nice gain, so i know i need ls crank and rods but i wanted to put them in a gsr block since i can get a mint block for cheap, and for 3 reasons, no vtec conversion kit, better oil flowing...(i heard), and girdle... so what all would i have to do to put an ls crank and rods into a gsr block? i heard you have to gring something down so the rods or crank clear due to the longer stroke they have? lmk what you guys think and would it be worth it? thanks tr

 

just make sure the crank's counterweights clear the oil squirters

 

so no machining is nesessary(sp)?

 

nope. Just gotta move/get rid of the oil squirters.

 

you can put pr3 b16 pistons to give a little higher compression,if your interested ive got a set

 

i am going 82mm pr3's sorry and also arent the oil squirters one of the biggest advantages of having a gsr block instead of ls?

 

im going to be running npr/nippon racing 82mm pr3 pistons brand new, so where can i get the coated and how much should it be? also what do they coat it with? and also can a machine shop do that and plug them? lmk thanks alot for all the help tr rep given to all
