ok so im working with a b18a1 bottom end and b16a2 head in my integra,and ive been getting diff opinions from every 1 about this,..... so i bought the car with an lsvtec conv already,and i noticed oil seeping out of the head gasket between the timeing belt and header,and im positive its not coming from the valve cover-cam seal etc....the car currently has an LS head gasket in it because the guy i purchased the car from said,it had a vtec headgasket in it but he changed to an LS for some forgotten reason,btw its a GE kit.and another 1 of my boys was telling me from experience to use hondabond ht to put around the oil passages between the head and block but anyway,my questions are:

1.) which headgasket should i go with,b-series vtec or LS"?
2.) should i use hondabond around the oil ports?

and please hit me up with some tips!!!! thanks,btw im getting started early about 8am and need this info quick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Use the vtec head gasket. as far as the honda bond, it won't hurt any.

 

double check it's not your cam seals. I thought my head gasket was leaking in that area after building my lsvtec. It turns out they leak down behind the cam gears right to where the head meets the block.
