    if you want to Rev higher then you will need a vtec head or a Vtec motor...

    IMO the LS tranny sucks for anything except gas mileage go with the GSR but not a B16

    you dont really need to build an LS that much unless your gonna be running alot of boost..
    But if you want to build some stuff like non internals a diffrent Intake mani, up grade your Fuel system, and your ignition system would be a good start...

    But theres alot that can be built on a motor...just depends on how much you wnat to spend.

    You need to figure out what you end goal is. What hp do you want? Is this a daily? Then you can figure out what you need.

    Also, you can rev a LS if you have the right parts. Stock LS's can't rev, built one's can.
