Default b17 OBD 1 GSR " breif talk" about whats hot and whats not with this motor

why do people gut out this engine and use the internals on other engines, why do they decide not to use this engine?

Whats hot? Head is decent. Pistons are flat tops. Little more displacement than a B16 (far cry from a true 1.7L though). Transmission can accept hydro internals.

Thats it.

people like it because it's rare. People used to use the crank in B20's for a more optimal r/s, then they realized it was dumb.
