LS-Vtec in works
Hello all! This is my first post in Honda tech! I heard so many great things about the knowledge of this group. Well let's get started with what I got and what I plan.
I've got a 2000 civic LX sedan
yea I know it's crap, I can't sell trade or anything this car so I've decided the only way for me to go is sleeper. I can't let my dad know my car has any performance work done to it. I bought a Zex nitrous kit and ran about 4 bottles till I realized that even with 55 shot I'm still a slow *** bitch. So I traded my Nitrous kit and a small some of cash for
B18B1 from a 94 Integra LS. It has a port and polished head and block, GSR tranny, Stage 1 clutch, DC sport Header.
What's wrong with it. It's in a million parts because it had a spun rod bearing cause he didn't check the oil after her burnt a piston ring. I had everything checked out and only the crank was damaged with the bearing. So I have a new crank on it's way.
After that I got a new job! now I can afford a tad more. I want to get a stroke kit from Eagle or some other reputable company if you guys know for a good price. Maybe get me 2.0L out of it if possible. and I plan to get a B16 head for the mighty LS/VTEC setup! I've got quite the road to haul but the sleeper project has excited the heck out of my friends and I. another thing will be when I put this in I will need to do a Automatic to manual conversion at the same time. I'm hoping for no screw ups... but something’s always bound to go wrong lol. So many things to do. But I just want to get the LS B18B1 in first before the LS/VTEC so all I need to do is get the stroke kit so I can have a complete engine before I worry about LS/VTEC mounts wire harnesses OBD 2 to OBD 1 conversions manual pedals for the auto to manual conversion. For the sleeper part my dad told me auto to manual was a pain in the butt and was stupid to do but he didn’t say I couldn’t do it. Right now my car is pretty much stock except a air intake. Stock hub caps and such.
Breaking it down
I'm working on the B18B1 block and need to find a stroker kit. I can't find one on e-bay so where should I go to find one?

I now have more of a fixed plan on my LS/VTEC setup!
