ls vtec ordering gasket set
« on: March 18, 2010, 08:36:23 PM »
So I will be building a ls vtec b18a1, gsr head and he wants me to order parts. Usually I dont I just help put shit together. So my questions are.

1. I remember you have to drill holes for the dow pins on the other side of the head and then use a ls head gasket. Is this true or should I use the gsr head gasket?

2. If I order a ls gasket set the only gasket that will not work is the intake. Is this true? If I remember correctly the gsr intake is on its own bolt patter.

3. He wants me to get a vtec oil pump. On the last build I did we just used the ls. Is all this vtec oil pump stuff fact or is it just internet bs?

Sorry some time has past since i build a ls vtec and I dont trust alot of the google searches/crappy sites. I do trust rhmt advice all day every day. Any help is greatly apriciated. I remember how to do the rest of it ::) :P

lol ok I know we used a ls oil pump on the last build so fuck the oil pump question. I dont give a shit I will just use a new oil psi control spring and shim it for shits and giggles. I am 99% sure the gsr intake is on its own the b16/r are the same and the ls/b20 are the same. But for the love of god I cant remember what head gasket to use. But my mind wants me to use a  ls.....................

I also know I need a vtec valve cover gasket. So out of the ls kit only 2 gaskets will not work is this correct? The valve cover gasket and the intake gasket.

i think you need to search, but i will tell you that you always use the head gasket for the head.
