You can build your motor if you want, or you can just slap the head on there using the procedure explained in that link. You will need a P72 ECU as well for the GSR head.

Not going to be as fast as the GSR considering the compression difference but the torque out of the LS motor will be nice with the VTEC head. Not sure on cost, I haven't done any research on it.
