i think what you should really do is give a budget that you are prepared to spend. will give people an idea of what you can do then

I thikn you were serious but I hope you werent. The H is a frickin pig of a motor, and this guy does his downhill running. Not a motor of choice for turns
My advice, I would take jcushing's advice. I would love to build a motor like that, I togue every single weekend.

ight so if i was gona do a B20/vtec wouldn't i want a GSR head. cus it dose have a higher comp than a B16. but the B16 is a lil cheaper. but way prob like $100 no biggy.
with B20 blocks, do i need to sleev it before i can put forged pistons in it? cus with an H i know you have to. and what would be the best crank & rod combo to go with if i did use a B20 block?
and yes i would be replasing all the gaskets and barings and what not.
i'll check on thisafter work, thx

if you have to ask such a question, what makes you think any of our true answers will even be understood by you?
bang for buck = use your ls bottom end, get some p30 pistons and a vtec head with some blox B cams (350 bucks), a used itr header with a 2.5'' collector and youll make 175ish whp.
my question is, if you have a booted LS, why do you want to downgrade by about 60 whp?
why dont you tell the truth which is that your LS either isnt boosted, is blown up, or youre rocking a d15b7.
edit: laughing at "holla when u hit da vtech b!!"
