B16A block in a LS head
ohhh you want to do a VTEC-LS swap.
i joked about it in the past, but most people said it couldnt be done, theres too many mis-matching dimensions of the block and head. its not like a true LS-VTEC conversion, where dowel pins and oil lines are the only modifications needed. i forgot what exactly interferes with each other though.
sorry.
if you were to just drop in b16 pistons in a LS engine, they would work and raise the compression to about 10.6 i believe. but i could be wrong.
