I've done a search. Came up with nothing
Which one would you take?
I have a choice right now. LS would be cheaper by far
I hear they give around the same in performance.
Big block or V-tec?? Which is it fellas?

 

LS/VTEC

 

This is the deal on that. MONEY!
I'll probably add a few bolt on and that will be it.
So from a stock motor which will do me right. The
big block or V-tec?

 

Texas guy to Texas guy Gotta love the B18A/B much more torque!!!!

Then save up for LS Vtec

 

If it has to be one or the other, I vote B16!!!!

 

LS ownz the b16
Wooo 900

yeah? i bet i can get more power out of b16 than b18a/b.

Jeff-

 

I bet you cant ..........The b18 is honda's bets flowing head when work is done and hold boost a hell of alot better than the weak b16 button end ..

 

My stock 91 B16 CRX HF with I/E beat a LS HB stripped with I/H/E. They hold for a while, then VTEC kicks in and it's pretty much over. This is my experience with 1 LS HB and 1 LS 90-93 Teg. I beat both pretty good. My vote is for the B16, but it just depends on what you plan on doing in the long run. N/A I'd say B16, and boost I'd say LS.

 

to each his own ..but a b16 stock vs b18 isnt going to win more than .2 in 1/4 ..Id mch rather have a slower motor stock with this much TQ and potentiel than a b16 just me though

 

we're talking about b18a/b here right? sure..b18a/b might be torquey..but top speed, b16 will outrun b18a/b anyday. sure, if you slap on a vtec head..that's a different story, but b16 w/ headwork and buttom-end done..it will out perform b18a/b anyday.

Jeff-

 

I'd got with the b16 and build it up, B18 may win around town tho..
I want to go with d16z6 turbo

 

LS has no top end . get it fitted with a slightly large turbo to remedy that. or some aggressive cams witch gives you bad idle and milage.

a guy in out car club swapped in a b16 in favor of a b18a and dropped 5 tenths off his 1/4. a b16 will be better out of the box for 1/4 but for daily driven and autox id rather have the b18a. i have a b16 with too many mods.
