...sucker tried to play me but you never paid me lol

anyway i was at one of my car club meetings last night and we just got two new members that are really gear head, i mean mad scientist, i told them that i was building a motor while i wait to get my shell. i told them it was an SI motor and they scoffed??!?!? the said SI's are cool but if i did the LS VTEC that i'd be alot happier. the said with the SI i'd need a rolling start and with LS-V i'd be able to handle a dig.....word??? lol what does TR think, help me out cuz i was gonna buy a SI block

 

well what are you doing with it turbo/N.A/supercharge?


i would go for a ls/vtec for turbo

 

yeah i was gonna do turbo

 

this is an interesting read on the ls-vtec..

The LS/VTEC Swap

 

You can build them all to be the same. If you sleeve it you can bore whichever one the same. Switch out the crank/rods for the longer stroke, etc....

 

ehh i'm probably just gonna stick with the b16 cuz ultimately i think it would be cheaper and more reliable

 

its still the same price to build any of the motors you listed. doing the the ls/vtec conversion is cheap.

 

i'd just build a gsr with b16 head for boost...

 

Always go with the bigger motor. Building a b16a is a waste of time/money, especially N/A.

 

b16's are good motors but not really for building. i mean they have a good rod stroke ratio but ls-V or Gsr will make more power and torque!
