road head is where it's at

dan:
it would be a good thing, provided that the motor is built properly.

Send it in to an experienced builder to put together. Think the Pistons need to be notched. Need oil squirters, and feed for vtec head and a few other things. Makes more bottom end than a ITR motor, but rod to stroke ratio make it dangerous to rev to same extreme levels. But considering how many LS bottom ends you can buy for the price of an ITR most people just rev the snot out of them.
