B18C1. There is no point in a stroked B16.

B16 head is not better than GSR. they ran tests on them and they are virtually the same. go with the GSR and build from there!

*maybe get rid of the ugly intake manifold first lol.

strokers are very expencive and its still not going to be fast. Dont expect to build a fast all motor B series Honda. You are lucky to get 200WHP on a build (unless its a full race LSVTEC or B20VTEC).
