I've searched for ever now and still dont know which engine is better. some people say that vtec is a must but when you look at the torque there barely is any and then some others say that the ls is the way to go. that engine has great torque for the amount of power it has and is way cheaper. for example if you put cams and a flywheel your probebly close to getting 180hp at the flywheel. on the other hand the vtec already has that power but you gotta rev it up to make the power and the ls block doesn't have to rev as much as a vtec to get your power. If anyone can help me out and give me their opinions and suggestions will be greatly appreciated thanks.

 

one letter = K. i/h/e + k-pro = 200+whp

 

what does this mean
one letter = K. i/h/e = k-pro =200=whp

 

*cough* *cough*..........K series motor, EASY 200 whp. I=intake/H=header/E=exhaust. If money isn't an option, you will absolutely haul *** with the K20a2.....don't do the A3. Good luck

 

thanks... i guess i wasn't clear enough... i'm starting to believe K=kill & B=be killed. I run a B by the way. better than D=dead.

 

i have a ITR swap in my coupe...really impressed for a stock motor. i raced a ls turboed in a integra KILLED, turboed eclipse KILLED, LS with bolt-ons didnt stand a chance and some nim-rod with a maxima that pulled up next to me with intake and exhaust. so i say dollar for dollar go ITR you won't be dissapointed. check out my car https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1077532

you killed the turbo ls and eclipse or you got killed by it? sorry im confused. itr's are cool.

 

i have an B1 in my teg and i like it for the most part...the torque is great, and so is the powerband. i plan on rebuildin it this winter...gotta find some cash first, haha.

 

Depends how much power you want. If you are content with 180 whp then you can do a good LS build. BTW, cams and a flywheel on an LS are not going to give 180 at the flywheel. That's a 40 hp increase...

If you're shooting for over 200 whp you pretty much need a VTEC b-series.

And of course the K-series is superior in every way to the B-series motor but it takes a good amount of cash at this point to run one.
