Right now I just recieved a 91 civic Si and I'm planing on doing a swap. I've been looking into the B16's but everyone has that set up and I wanted to try something else. I wanted to push the limits of a LS motor and from what I was told it will pull faster than the B16's in a civic, now is that true? Because I'm planing on runing the LS because of low compressions with a shot of NOS and maybe later go with Vtec head. Give me some input.

 

the best engine for your car would be a ZC...probably the SOHC ZC

an LS will pull harder than the b16 because it has more displacement (1.8L as opposed to 1.6L). if ur gunna put a vtec head on an LS, get someone like Mugen or Spoon to do it, because its easy to mess up and messing up an LS/VTEC conversion is bad news.

 

Sounds great but would you know where I could fine these motors just off the top of your head.
