Hey
Could you do us all a favor and read up on these subjects. Even when your reading other peoples comments they are able to spell VTEC right, its not hard...You really need to do some research on the setup that you want, and what you want it for. LS/VTEC you will make very good horsepower but will sacrifice torque. The VTEC head flows more then the B18A/B setup you have. What everyone has stated thus far is true, and you can't just slap a head on and call it a day, there are conversion kits that can be had. Then you will need a new ECU and everything else mentioned. Turbo the B18 and you will see good gains, and good torque.

dont let the haters bring you down. i had an lsvtec turbo with stock rods (arp rodbolts), rs machine b16a pistons, arp headstuds, and a thick cometic head gasket. it was built for all motor at the beginning then i put the cometic on it and an ebay t3/t4. my guess is about 10.2:1 comp ratio from the 11.5:1 that it was with a stock HG.
the car makes about 370 whp on 15 psi. and it still running strong. i traded it to a friend for a motorcycle and he daily drives the car.
