im doing an ls integra swap to my civic eg.... im using b18a1 block with type r and gsr internals.. my question!! im using a gsr bridge and maincaps, do i need a gsr oil pan and baffle etc???? any help is appreciated thanks

 

you using the gsr main caps on the ls motor?
you can;t do this unless you have it lined bored
motor will fail

 

Yea why are you using GSR mains if your using a LS block, you should use LS mains and align bore that.

As for the oil pan its the exact same as an LS except GSR has baffles and LS/B20 dont.

 

if yuo use a gsr oil pan you need the gsr oil pick up..
same with the ls pan

if yuo using mixed matched main caps your are asking for big troble

this applys for rods too!!!

 

as far as using a GSR girdle on a LS you need GSR main studs that are longer and also need the oil pick up, sump, and oil pan for the extra clearance for the girdle. Align hone is recommended if using a girlde on a LS bottom.

 

i am using the gsr main caps and bridge on the ls bottom end... i already got the motor line bored and the rods re-surfaced... as far as the baffle etc... does it need to be gsr or can i just use the ls oil pan etc...

 

You should probably be asking this in the Integra, Hybrid, or All Motor forums - because this has nothing to do with '92-00 Civics or del Sols.

Not to mention the GSR uses a crank girdle, and a different pickup tube. So, that makes the GSR oil pan a wee bit different than the LS.

 

if you use the gsr girdle than you need the pickup tube and the oil pan the gsr pan is different because it is larger to clear the girdle and the pickup goes with the pan so theres your answer
