    especially for an Si with an LS/VTEC. why pay the higher insurance when you could get a LX or EX and swap in a LS/VTEC and have the same thing.

    B18 LS = non VTEC
    B16 = VTEC

    B16 head on B18 block = LS\VTEC...= faster LS

    errr, so does that mean you're gonna buy it?

    The LS is a cheap block with cheap internals, can get them complete for $250-500 all day long...you can barely even get a set of pistons for the B16a2 for that (OEM SI engine)
