What kind of rev can a stock bottom end of a b18b take? Im planning on swapping a b16a3 head on and dont want to push the relability of too soon. I have read a lot about clearance issues as well and was wonder if a thicker head gasket would solve this problem?
Thanx Kevin

 

The LS bottom end can go up to the factory b16a redline(8100-8200),but dont go higher without arp rod bolts.There are no clearance problems,even with big cams.

 

only difference is LS bottom end doesnt have oil squirters, GSR does. it will hold up tho
