ok i have a b18a1 motor and im gonna put a b16a2 head on it. i was talkin bout it to a couple people at the track and they were tellin my im gonna blow my bottom end rite out after a thousand miles. i dont think i am because im puttin in all new main bearings and arp rod bolts and arp head bolts. there saying im still gonna blow my motor. do u guys think it wud blow or shud i change my rods to? i dont realy want to do the rods because i dont wanna take the pistons out and throw off the piston wall clearances wen i put them back in. can i get some advice please guys.

 

yeah its call lsvtec its been done a million times the major thing is the rod bolts wich you said your gonna replace so yes it can be done and it will be fine as long as its done right and taken care of properly
