i dont know about these prices...

 

A complete engine for under $200?? and a transmission for $150? I can't even find D series transmissions for that much.

somethin's fishy

 

lol can you say bs lls. I have decided to go with an ls/vtec in the light of my tight money issue.

Curious what engine from the third generation acura ls should i et the b18a1 or the b18b1?

I am sold in the future after getting the engine and buying the motor mounts to put a fully built head by me. Currently the vtec head will be using would be off the b18c5 motor.

 

b18a1 = 2nd gen (DA 90-93) and B18b1 = 3rd gen (DC 94-01) if I recall correctly. Basically the same motor. However, I would just go for an OBD1 B18B1 and call it a day.

 

thats probably what i am going to end up doing in the end. Later after college ill look into getting the stuff to assembly a fully built vtec head. I am curious what type of head i should buy.

 

they say that the b16 head that came in the 99-00 SI were great flowing heads. If I'm not mistaken, they're about the same as a type-r head, but cheaper. I'd probably go that route... but if you're gonna build it, I dont think it would matter that much. If you randomly found...oh say... a cheap GSR head on Craigslist, it would probably be worth picking up if it was cheap enough and you were just gonna have it port/polished later anyways, know what I mean?

 

yeah i understand but i am palnning on doing more than porting and polishing. I am going to add bigger cam gears better vtec cams. THings of that nature.

 

...I was answering your question... Should I repeat myself?

b16 si head = type-r head > GSR head

You said you were curious... you should no longer be curious. lol

 

thanks ill keep that in mind hey out of curiousity again lol. What is the price of those two vtec heads what are the specs on the vtec head
