I been reading about the short and long rod ratio like i see the long r/r supposed to have less wear than the short r/r the ls vtec have a short r/r so i just want to know for yours personal experience how reliable they can be!!!!! thanks

my set up for daily use:
ls block bored w darton sleeves 84.5-13.1compression
b16a fully ported head
erick racing header
rocket m24 cams and valvetrain

 

R/S ratio is over hyped as an issue on street builds.... Also saying perfect and R/S is bad and wrong it depends on a ton.

The rods are weaker stock to stock in the LS no debate there, i got mine shot peend and polished for next to nothing and ARP rod bolts, the rod bolts being the main key for the rods life.

I think the users name is bam bam, but he has a great write up for how to make an lsvtec that will last.

 

sorry for not mentioning i have scat rods ultra light

13.1 comp will not be very reliable.

Read.

 

12.0=pump gas
13.0=race gas

make your choice on your daily driver

 

yes im thinking in make some works in the chambers to drop the compression a little bit thanks

 

i just recently got a b20/vtec and its stock as it can be internally etc. Ive put some serious miles on it already and i havent had a problem. Just dont be retarded revving the sh*t out of it and get it properly tuned.

 

i use to run this set up on P.R and i make 217.hp /148torque on pump gas i think now i can make more with different things i been changing
