Re: b18b crankshaft into a b18c block = more POWER & TORQUE? (GSRpoweredEJ)
if you search on it i believe there's some other threads on this.
But from what i loosely know, you'd have to rework the oil squirters because they would get hit by the long stroke. And your deck height would be insufficient with the longer stroke. Also, increasing the stroke lowers your safe redline. You're better off just building the GSR internals.

yes you'll have to bend the oil squirters a bit, use the LS crank and LS rods. and increasing the stroke by 2mm, correction 1.8mm isn't gonna lower the safe redline by much. people always say stuff like this because of the LS' lower redline but little do they know that the LS' lower redline is due to many other things other than it's stroke. things such as poor valvetrain, poor flow, oil/water pumps, etc.
I'll be building my LS/Vtec soon as well and I will be using a Sleeved 84mm B18c block with LS internals.
