Thinking of doing an lsvtec swap....what should i look out for?
lsvtec swaps are usually done with the b20 block. what are the most common problems with this swap?
how about an lsvtec swap with a b21 block? what would be the common problems with this? or would it be pretty much identical?
any help would be much appreciated!

LS/VTEC's use the b18 block, CR-VTEC runs the b20 bottom end....

if you do a crvtec you will have to do a complete motor swap since your motor leans forward and other engines have a more straight forward stance.
