    soo... if gsr rods are stronger that ls rods, then why do people build ls/vtec motros in the first black. Why not just get a full gsr or a poor mans type r

    .....I think this is covered in a sticky...

    LS (b18a/b18b) motors have longer stroke thus producing more torque than GSRs. You do LS/vtec to get benefits from both motors.. Vtec and the torque of the LS.

    your missing the entire point.

    GSR rods are stronger, VTEC rods are bigger, better bearings, better oiling system.

    LS has a bigger stroke, which means a lower redline and weaker rods.


    Combine LS crank with Strong Rods (eagles)=TQey vtec motor
