Default The ls/vtec and b18c alternative?

Has any one done this? Do you think it would have that much hp? Any input would be great thanks>

It's not exactly wild speculation since once you put a b17 crank & rods in a b16 block you have a 92-93 GSR motor. I believe his r/s calculations are a bit off in that article, but it is a great little motor, and I believe his HP projections are pretty realistic.
