    You can't go wrong with the B series... so many options to choose from, especially with the LS being your base engine.

    Hard to say, man. I came from d15b2 to b18a1. Granted...I LOVE my A1...but I miss the gas mileage of the d. For a DD, get your d16. If you wanna play...go with your b. This is why I'm keeping my b hatch, and probably going small turbo d on the other...

    Alan...dude...I've got an extra b18 laying around I need rid of...

    Oh, and skinny...if you wanna drive my b18, I dont' mind leaving it in your hands for a minute to decide if you like it or not..

    lol.. Thanks for the offer, but i don't drive other peoples cars. Afraid they'll say i broke something and they'll mke me pay to fix it. I've had a B18 crx before, but it was gutted. I've had several SOHC VTEC's in my past cars, and LOVE them.

    So, I've made up my mind and I'm going SOHC. Besides.. i have a better toy coming soon. Alan knows what it is.

    I would say b18 swap just because of the displacement, but the z6 is a nice single cam! **** what ever is easier!

    Ben, pm me on how much you're lookin for, and how much gas milage you're getting out of your b18. I get about 34 w/ my ZC, but thats like 90% highway miles
