Re: Ls with b16 pistons help?
thanx you guys, and im going non vtec, and im building my ls head. so it thats alot of confusing differnt sides of the b16 pistons or ls rods conversation. so i get the pistons put on the rods at a machine shop, then hone the block basicly? and the b16' pistons will work without vtec head correct?

yea use "plastic" when putting the head on to check for clearance issues just in case. a machine shop will know what it is and will beable to point oyu in the right direction.

No offense to you NasTHatch, and not to say you don't know a thing or two about auto. mechanics, but this just goes to show that the reputation system on DRAG reflects popularity and not the amount of knowledge someone possesses.

Re: Ls with b16 pistons help?
gonna have to agree. I built an all motor ls with pr3 pistons and had no problems. I also built an ls with p30 pistons. The rods had to be cut for the larger wrist pin, and it had no problems clearing the head. Eventually I swapped the head and did an ls/vtec and it was fun as shit. with a lightened flywheel and the relatively high compression that motor had awesome response.

Re: Ls with b16 pistons help?
and on a side note, fuck your thoughts on this shit being a popularity contest, my rep on here has nothing to do with my knowledge, i work in a shop and we do engine builds/swaps/ custom builds, my knowledge expands further than the dumb shit people read on the internet because 95% of the car shit you read on the internet,(especially honda) is wrong, Ask More Impatient, he has seen the shop, and watched us build a car from a bare shell....not to sound cocky, but i do in fact know "a thing or two".
