Re: LS swap DONE PICS

im thinkin ls vtec, maybe boost still not sure what do you think? Right now im happy with it but im sure I'll want more power later. Boost sounds good cuz it can be done for cheap and i got a super 60 turbo already, I'd like to build the ls as much as i can though. damnit i dont know.

i called ami's shop for help cuz i had lots of questions

Re: LS swap DONE PICS

thats actually what i was thinkin go ahead and set up a turbo now, then i know a guy that will sell me a complete ls motor for $80 that needs the bottom end rebuilt. I'd look around for a vtec head (also know a guy that will sell me a b16 head for $600 rebuilt) and build that block for boost and ls vtec. I just got laid off though so im gonna have to wait.

Re: LS swap DONE PICS
