sounds strange when i saw it as well... it was really weird...he loves the NON-Vtec heads..but loves the B18c1 block Since so called their stronger....the car is so smooth that it sounds like a brand New BMW/Lexus...

Does it lower the compression or something? I dont quit get it but would love to see how much it puts down. The GSR cams are very good for boost. Thats pretty odd. But to originality
Also where do you work at that your boss does swaps like that? Custom shop

Seems like a step backwards but whatever. LS rocker arms definitely seem like the weakest link. That and the cam caps.

i thought he said that the head was fullly built and if it is im sure the head is probably flowing very well. his boss is probably one of those american car driving guys who doesnt like vtec.
