you have to use an LS head gasket so make sure the one you have is not for anything but an LS...

complete parts list as stated in November Sport Compact Car

-B series VTEC head
-VTEC ECU
-B series VTEC dist
-90-01 LS head gasket
-94-01 GS-R head bolts
-94-01 GS-R timing belt
-94-01 GR-R knock sensor***
- -4 braided steel lines 22in. with female ends
-1/8" NPT female to 1/8" NPT female to 1/8" BSPT male on run pipe tee
-1/8" NPT male to -4 male straight adapter
-3/8" NPT male to -4 male straight adapter
-1/8" internal pipe plug
-1/8" NPT pipe tap
-3/8" NPT pipe tap
-14mm drill bit
-10.9mm drill bit
-12mmX1.25mm tap

***if you use Hondata you do not need to drill and tap the block for a knock sensor.

-so depending on which route you go you may need a knock sensor.
-also you can not use an LS dist. it mounts differently than a VTEC dist. along with the section that is used for timing/rotating i believe is also different.
-ARP rod bolts would be a great investment since they are considered the peak link in the LS/VTEC
-and which head bolts do you have cause the Civic Si head bolts will also work...

 

yes, you need the dowel pins from GE...also i highly recommend buying a crank girdle...it will help you out in the long run with high revs...thats just if you have the funds to buy one...there was one on here forsale not too long ago for the ls block...

 

i got the ls/vtec oil kit. i pretty much don't need it. i can show you some pictures of it. If ya interested in buying.
