Do a lot of reading first, use the search feature. You'll be able to find most anything you need to know. LS/VTEC's are great, when built correct. They can pose problems if corners are cut, you are using a shortblock that wasn't made to rev to 8K+ like the VTEC head is used to.

seems like you are trying to get cheap power. ls/vtec isn't cheap if you want it done right and will wind up costing you more than a b18c. maybe piece together a turbo for some cheaper power.
