Default Need to convert B18B1 to vtec head.

I've got a b18b1 in my teg, and want to get a vtec head on it. What options do I have for the head? I'm planning on getting the head off the B18C1, and the ECU. Then I should be set. Anything else I need?

thanks

Before you get flamed...

You can't JUST do that... there is A LOT involved and you should get someone who knows what they are doing to do it for ya.

1) LSVT (LS/Vtec) suxz asz with the stock LS pistons...
2) A machine shop needs to mod your vtec head for this
3) You need to know how to wire vtec (Helms manual)
4) You will need to replace your rod bolts with upgraded units as well as oil and water pumps, timing belt...yadda...yadda...yadda...
5) Do a search, you need quite a bit of stuff

I'm at work now and don't feel like explaining what I know... but do a search on LSVT or LS/Vtec or CR/Vtec... you should find lots of info.
