Eitherway, you still fail.

We put a spoon R motor into a guys car. He dynoed it...it made about as much power as a stock GSR.

Lol bro u are soooo wrong... My fucked up GSR had a LS in it, was gonna go with ls vtec, Hence the LSv, but came across a nice clean completely redone block (b16a), and seeing how I already had a 99si head (got it complete for $300, pretty good deal), and since my LS was burning oil, lost nearly all its compression, I decided to go B16... so back off

B16A is great if you're coming from a D series engine. It's a downgrade from a B18B which seems to have a lot more potential, especially with FI. Maybe you dislike torque though :dunno:
