Ferrera valvetrain, Toda cams, AN-R header + big fat smile on your face. Sounds like one nice setup.

B18B and torque should not be mentioned together in the same sentance. Unless, of course, it is resleeved to 84+mm. If you REALLY want torque, go for nothing less than a B20. Or find a way to swap in an H-series motor.

You have a good point there. But when I first did an LS swap, the hype about its torque had me expecting ALOT more than what I got. Simply put, a B18B/LS transmission pulls little better than a B16A/S1 in first gear and quite a bit worse than a B16A/S1 in fifth gear.

TO add to that
If you turn the car ANOREXIC, you can really get a D16 set-up to fly.

Sorry if I offended anyone

Its from my Camaro. 95 with a little 5.7L

Stock heads suck. She would have made 500hp with a good set of heads that breath.

Can't wait to see what I can squeeze out of this little ZC motor now.

But talk about fun to drive. Things break with that much tq off the line.

Nice try buddy, but -

Rich means to have abundant money/possessions. You have alot of possessions, compared to who? My nephew thinks I am rich, because I have a car, my own place, and tons of video games. I gave him a $20 yesterday to play in the arcades, and he said "Wow, I'm rich!". If I made a tenth of what Bill Gates made, I'd be rich, but if he made a tenth of what he makes, he'd say hes poor.

My motor has alot of torque, compared to my D16. If I pulled up a dyno sheet with a riding lawnmower showing 180 lbs of torque, you'd say, "Wow, thats alot of torque!"

As far as YOUR statement goes - They BOTH have torque. Not alot, maybe, but you are wrong saying that they have no amount of torque.

Your comment shows ignorance and =

(I wasn't that hyped over my LS, either, I drove an LS DA Integra for a few months before I bought this car, but I was surprised by how much quicker my LS felt in my EF than in the DA, I expected a difference, but not as much as the seat of my pants felt)

Yeah, I was planning on that or turbo the LS, but I'd rather get all the little stuff fixed first before I start building the motor. Right now, it runs good and doesn't have a ton of mileage, and thats good enough for me, right now
