ok guyhs i am new to the honda world and am starting to get the hang of things but the guy i bought my car off of has another car but it has a Ls vtec wat is the ls vtec? and is it better the a b18c1

 

goto general civic talk and click on 'this is how vtec works'

 

i no how vetc works but thanks ne way

 

An ls vtec is where you have a non vtec blockandhave a vtechead on it. As for which is better, i dont really know, probablyaround the same hp +/- 10-15hp

More info on ls/vtec: http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/te...ine/index.html

 

LS and CR/VTEC's are better in a sense because the long stroke of the non vtec crank promotes more low and mid range tq than their vtec counter parts. But being it does have a longer stroke it has higher piston speeds throughout the rpm range vs a factory vtec engine. You can make great power with them and they really shine in all motor set ups when matched up against a vtec engine build vs build. A mild well built ls/vtec with the proper tune will mke better power than a type r swap with the same bolt ons and tuned, plus the ls/vtec will have more tq across the rpm range.

 

wow dident no that. thanks for puting that all together for me. the guy i boght my car from is sellin a 93 dx with a ls vtec in it for 3200 i might picked it up if i do ill post pics..
