yeah which b18 is it. B16 have a better rod/stroke ratio and can handle reving, but gsr is the way to go. But if it is a ls for that price, nod and say ill take the b16

If it's a B18C (vtec versions) I would definitely pay the extra $250 for it. B16s really don't have much more torque than your stock D series.

If it is a B18a/b I would buy the b16, then try to get an LS block. You can usually find them fairly cheap and do an LS/Vtec swap. You would be more then happy with the results.
