Default B18c1 Swap

So I have an Integra LS and my friend crashed his 98 GSR the other day and gave me the motor for free. I checked and the block and head is clean. What should I do? go LS-Vtec? or Straight GSR? I like going GSR more though so how would that work out with an all stock LS motor?

Why would you do LS/VTEC when you have a full GSR motor? Just swap the motors, all you should need is the ECU/wiring(i think), and sell the LS. You are pretty lucky to get a gsr motor for free though, I'm jealous =(

Ummm... transplant the GSR motor directly into your car? Get the trans, harness, and ecu from your friend as well.

I'm not going to list all of the reason why you shouldn't go LS/VTEC.
