Default G23: F23 Block H23 Head

I am looking for info that will allow me to build a G23 i see there is some info, but i am looking for a definitive guide on how to make this work.

What exactly does it take?

What exactly is needed?

Is it really just as simple as an LSVTEC?

What are the things to consider?

Is it possible to complete for less than $800?

Is the extra work of a G23 really worth the extra 20 TQ over a stock F23A?

The best part is that the f23 has iron cylinders. Two oil drain ports need to be plugged in the H series head. It gives you low compression unless you put different pistons in or deck the block

This is one of the more well known builds. Just keep in mind that it's way more than a simple engine swap.
