yes it's worth it for the top end. but you would also need a good set of cams to benifit from the skunk2 manifold. (crower 403 or 404's)

also a 64mm throttle body and a custom ECU chip with higher rev-limiter would help also.

As long as you don't take it over redline with a stock bottom end. That's how many a B18A have met their end, when they spin a rod bearing or chuck the entire rod.

hmm... you beat me to it, but it is worth it if you are going f/I and maby a VERY heavy N/A build for a ls. But please remember, b18b/a motors are only decient with N/A where as they are better then decient with F/I(excluding supercharge).

i decided to let the deal pass... gonna start rebuilding a spare head first, then find a bare block and rebuild that... then start to worry about stuff like skunk2 I/M's etc

im gonna do a mild build so if i want to go f/i later on down the road, i dont have to tear it all down and build it back up to handle boost.
