Think of it this way: If you actually have to ask this question, then you're not worthy to have "import king" in your username.

I don't mean to flame, but this is just rediculous.

cmon guys give it up

Yes you can use a B20 bottom end and put a b18c5 head on it.. but its not just as straight forward as you might think.. search around ..search LS/VTEC and you'll see plenty of threads about different LS/VTEC or CR/VTEC builds and problems encountered.
