Close to none. You gain something with the compression gain and lose some with displacement loss. It's too stupid of an idea to say any more.

You would lose the low end torque that you would have if you had the LS bottom end. :nono:

You've got it backwards. Put a GSR head on your ls, hence ls/vtec, and you'll have better hp and tq gains.

:iagree: although i would use a B16 head on an LS block due to the better flow it gets.

wow...you are an ass.

LS/vtec=bottom B18b1(or B18a) with a Vtec B seriest Head.

you define ricer with having rims, body kit, and i/h/e and not know what an LS/V-tec is. You are the kid you see at Pepboys looking at the lights for your car to make it look cool. Go die!

I was just wondering, did he just recently altrer his sig aftre you posted that about him being a ricer, cuz I see he has a body kit, but I also see he has lightweight wheels, and sounds like one nice setup under the hood.

although it is sad that he thinks you end up with the LS bottom end when you use the B18B for a LSVTEC :shakehead

uhm guys...if u actually read it, he could be talking about the b18C bottom that he'll have left. he never says once (while talking about ls/vtec) that he'd have a b18b/b18a bottom end left over.

cut him some slack.

I just read that, then what was written after thta and it started the whole train of thought in my head.

I believe he is talking about after you build a ls/vtec you will have 1 block left over and 1 non vtec head left over and whether or not he can put them together to have another complete engine while not as good as the ls/vtec one but still able to run?

if you read the original post it says could you put a gsr bottom end on an ls integra.

yes it does, but that is not a LSVTEC, more like a waste of time.
