Waz up all. I need some advise on which motor to build. I have a 91 ls b18b/93 ls b18b1/and 91 b16a gen1 motor. All are complete, but all need work to.When done it will sit in 90 ls hatch body. The car came with the b16a in it. All the wireing was done and it was driveable, but the motor knocked bad so I pulled it out, and it was HURT, it needs crank/rods/pistons/and bearings. The b18b has a spun bearing and the b18b1 has a bad crank.
Now when one motro gets done I want to put my Garrett tb410s turbo in. So what motor is best suited for turbo.Plus keeping the b16 means no wires to play with now, while doing the b18 means wireing.I found a Eagle stroker kit for the b16 for $900 Would it make sence to just build the b16a or is the b18 going to be better? I was told ls/vtec dont like turbo without lots of building,is that true? I want big hp so im thinking the b16 is the way to go.All imput is welcome.Thank guys, this forum kick ass.
