Default engine?

i have a 95 integra ls and i want to know what would be the best way of going
b18c1 gsr
b16a2
ls/vtec (heard good things and bad things)
boost the b18b1 engine i have already
-the ls vtec is something i have always wanted to do but i heard it costs a lot and there is a lot of blown engines and engine damage.
your input would be great.
thanks for your help.

Drop a 305 in there.

Maybe if you weren't a complete tard you'd tell us something like what you want your car to be.

lol^^^


Depending on the shape of your b18b, I would suggest boosting it. It seems to be the easiest out of those you chose.

you need to give us a more detailed description on what YOU want. power goals, budget? boosting your stock motor will give you the best results for the least amount of money.

a 305 is a big block thats obviously not compatible for an integra. i think an LS turbo doing 250-300whp will do fine for you. that is attainable on stock internals. make sure your motor is healthy first or KA BOOM!

id boost it!

Do a compression test and if it checks out go ahead with the boosting, if not, build it up for around 3k, then boost the ever living **** out of that.

a 305 is a chevy SMALL block, BIG blocks start somewhere in the 400 ci range.
compression checks are easy and you could do it yourself

cubic inch doesn't determine whether big or small block either. new z06 is a 427 small block.

i was thinking the b16a2 too because my brother did that engine swap on his civic so he would know what is needed. plus it is cheaper than the gsr. gsr is better but the b16a2 is cheaper.
thanks for all your guys help.

You could get the B16 and always rebuild it with new parts.

Just boost the LS on like 8 PSI. That should hold up nicely.
