Default LS/V-Tec

Okay so Iwill tell you guys my situation here. I dont know much about engines in Hondas, trying to learn.

I am looking for a GS-R integra but im findin more LS's

Anyway I have a guy that has a LS/V-tec with a B18b1 block and a b16a head with the GSR Tranny, its the GSR shell also for 2500 and the motor has less then 1500 miles on it

Would thismotor pull as hard as a GSR B18c1?

Any stats i can look at or anything i should know and consider before purchasing thiscar?

Pretty general question and it depends a lot on how well the LS-V was done. Do you know any more about the motor?

its dangerous to buy a motor like that from another person. you dont know what is really done to it. no way to know if it is built right and in my opinion is a death trap. because lsv WILL TAKE A SH*T ON YOU IF NOT BUILT RIGHT. but if you still insist lsv can pull as hard as a gsr and pull harder, depending on what you have in it.

I have a lsv but it is built and it does pull harder than a gsr but stock lsv vs stock gsr? I would go with the gsr. My next build will be a gsr block with my ls crank and rods
