would that make it a Vtec/LS.

I have a built LS head, and can pick up a built B18C block. What do I have to consider to make this work?

Block off the dowels?
Measure deck clearance?
Timing belt?

Anyone have a link to someone that has done this, or any insights, thank you.

sell your built ls head and get a b16 or gsr head. guaranteed you will make more power this way.

 

I can understand where you're coming from but it would still make more power to take an LS block with B16 pistons and then use your built LS head.

 

haha i was just thinking of doing this today
hmmm i wonder.........
you would probably have to block the vtec selonoid feed hole
i wonder if the gsr block would distribute enough oil to the head??
keep this thread up cuz i would like to know also

 

i saw a b16block/LS head combo on ebay awhile back, guy was selling it as an extra motor cause he had extra parts from an ls/vtec. bad idea in my O. no point at all really.

 

still sounds like a good fun turbo engine for cheap
for the person who dares to be different

 

i would presume that an LS longblock would be cheaper. part the gsr block out and get an ls. more power IMO and much cheaper.

 

I always wanted to do that with a B16 block b/c there's so many spare parts. I figured it'll be like a DOHC ZC motor. But doing that with a B18C block is a waste IMO. Do poorman's Type R.

 

hey assclowns, no more opinions. I'm looking for technical advice, thanks. Delete your posts.

i think they were all perceptive

 

You're assuming I'm ignorant to the fact I could swap a vtec head onto this and call it a day.

You're deceiving yourself to think that you have said anything insightful.
