would it be possiblw for me to use itr rods, crank, and pistons in my rs?
cuz i know the bores are a little different, but its not much at all, or what are some other ecommendations??

 

The bores are the same I beleive. Just use the pistons.

 

i dont think the rods and crank would work . pistons would work perfect , you use them .

the itr pistons have to have the pins machined/filled down by a macing shop to clear.

 

ITR rods and crank go together as a pair. Same thing with the B18 non-VTEC rods and crank. Don't mix-n-match b/w the two.

All B-series (except B20) engines have a std 81mm bore. Pistons are interchangeable. Slight modifications needed if mixing and matching B18A/B rods or B16 rods with B18C pistons.

 

well, i just mostly want a stronger set of rods for my car, cuz i know the ls rods arent the strongest by ny means, would i be better off justgoing with eagle h beam rods??

 

there are crower rods for sale for about 350 i think and HT gets a deal or something

 

do you mean eagle rods ? i have never heard of anybody selling crower rods that cheap .

 

yeah eagle rods your right

 

where at?
also, how hard would it be to install new pistons/rods, without pulling the motor? just out of curiosity? or is it just way better off pulling it and gettin her dialed?
so the eagle h beam rods on itr pistons with a stock ls crank would be an ideal setup?

 

If you're gonna go through the trouble of putting that stuff in, you might as well pull the motor.

Not a good idea to half *** the job.

 

I think vtec motors have a shorter deck height than the b18B. Using the rods and crank wouldn't work.

 

if you are looking for the eagle rods im sure u can find them in the "best buy" forum or try usin the "search" function . sumtimes it helps but not always .
