Ok, I've had my 93Ls for 5yrs now. When i was going 2 do my first motor build, the engine in the car crapped on me, so the motor i had in the garage i put in, because it was my daily driver and still is. I have about 150,000 miles on the car and i'm trying to figure out what 2 do. Not sure if i want to build an LsVtec,LS or Swap in a B18C.

Here is a list of part's i've thought of for an LsVtec. Any guidance on the subject would be greatly appreciated.

Parts
Gsr head
Skunk 2 intake manifold/exhaust
Skunk 2 Cam's Shaft's(Stage 2)
AEM Fuel Rail w/ 440 Injector's
Eagle Rod's
Baring's & Piston Ring's
Water pump/oil pump
LsVtec Kit
Supertech Valves/Valve Springs & Retainer's
Skunk 2 Cam Sprockets
Vtec Dist.
Cp Piston's

It's going to cost more to have that LS Vtec running properly than just swapping it out with a low milage GSR swap from Japan.

Just use your current tranny and youll be set. Drop it in and do the little things to have a clean swap.
Not only that... It would be more reliable and I don't care what people say. If it's a low milage GSR stock motor, and you take care of it, that engine can last you longer because it's not two major compenents that were never meant to be on each other. And the main thing... it's stock.

Not only that, I would never EVER buy someone elses LSVtec setup. I would buy a stock swap though
