Default b16 crank in a b18a?

will this work. I have a 81mm ls block and don't want the tq of an ls. I have a good b16 crank. will this work with a good piston and rod combo at about 18psi and has it been done before. please post ur opinion. Oh yeah its going to be with a b16 head. thanks

who wants torque in a honda anyways, just leave the ls crank in it, get some forged internals, have a nice 400whp~ build, call it a day, the end

you will be looking at a custom piston rod combo.(atleast a custom rod.) and may outweigh any gain or benefit you are looking for.
