Default LS Non-vtec Build

My Plans:
Stock B18A1 Block (hot tanked and honed)
Stock Head (maybe some hand porting and polishing)
Crower 404's
Crower Springs and Retainers (or Brian Crower equivalent)
PR3 Pistons (10.8:1 CR)
Arias Forged LS Rods
Skunk2 Intake Manifold (still undecided on whether or not it is worth it)
Skunk2 TB (still undecided on whether or not it is worth it)
PR4 ECU running Turbo Edit

Please post some opinions.

Since you are running Crower 404's, go with the Skunk or Blox intake manifold; the stock LS IM is going to choke the top end where those cams want to run. Get a good header and exhaust to help the engine breathe too.

That is what I guessed. I already have an exhaust. What header to do you recommend? I don't wanna spend too much on that. I am trying to work within a strict budget.

The JDM ITR 4-1 and DC JDM 4-1 are decent, or one of the SMSP or Hytech knock off headers which make o.k. power.

Will these fit on my B18A? It is in a 1991 DB1. I was told that I need one specific to 90-91 integra. 92-93 use different headers and exhaust.

They will bolt to the head, not sure about chassis fitment. Sorry.

Really? Nice!!! My plans are to get a new blox or SK2 TB. Since it will be off. I would rather get a new one instead.

Is it worth it to go 2.0L? I have a guy that has two blocks he can sell me.

1:
JG open deck sleeved block. Currently 85mm bore. Needs a rebore so might have to go 86mm

2:
Stock B20B block

Which one would you guys suggest? Or should I just stay with LS 1.8L?

Best guys to ask would be Sean or Todd at Churches. They have a great deal
of experience with these builds. Good luck!
