you need to place this add in the honda tech to get answers cause this is strictly for sales on parts.
What I would do! ls block with new bottom end bearings and piston rings. Install arp rod bolts and head studs. Vtec water pump, prefer GSR or ITR. GSR girdle/crank guard. B16 head prefered or just use gsr head. 3ft ss line and a tap with a set screw and a fitting for the head for new oil supply. This is the main shit I consider when doing ls-v builds, insures safeness.

Next while you're already taking it apart and having cash spent I would get the head shaved a few times if B16 and then get it port matched. Get genuine or replica "CTR" pistons not ITR. Bigger injectors, H22 ones work great. 4-1 header, vtec needs to breath for more power! Then since the block has been reinforced these are a few things you can add on to get that extra little bit. A few more bolt ons can def. be considered. This is my route for a nice ass ls-v that still stays dependable. G/l
