ls/vtec. it's not as expensive as you think. just go to the junkyard and pull a b18 for maybe $100 and get it resurfaced, cleaned and honed. the other way of doing it would be to bore your cylinders out...or stroking your motor with a new bottom end....(not sure if thats right or not)

i thought that the b16's and b18's all had the same bore, just different stroke.... right?

the B16A block is shorter than a B18A/B, B18C, B20B/Z... you cant put a crank from a 1.8 or 2.0 in a B16A without CUSTOM rods...

Re: B16 to 1.8

a guy that was selling a set of gsr pistons and rods told me pistons will fit good but not the rods just for 4mm or so.. i want to pass to 1.8 with just oem pars but i see it's impossible, then i will boost the b16.. it could make alot of power too but....
