    Let the fun begin!

    Well what can I say? I want to be the first LS/VTEC Accord. Here is what I have just purchased for my B18A1


    Arias 11:1 pistons - used obviously, just need to be cleaned up.





    Integra Type-R valve springs



    Civic Type-R Intake cam and Integra Type-R Exhaust cam



    Now I need a B16A head!

    ohhh dude, get sport compact car magazine for october. they have an article about compression ratio.
    well what i am trying to say is that with LS block and B16 head and civic type R pictons (10.8:1), the pistons will smash into the head.
    so now lets see in your situation, LS block, B16 head, 11:1 pistons, i am sure you will see your pistons when they come up. they will go through your head like nothing.
    i am gonna try to scan the article and post here as soon as possible.

    just cuz the compression ratio is a bit more doesn't necessarily mean the piston will collide, you can always try cranking it over by hand first :p
