The guy that building the motor for me is giving me a warranty, but his work speaks for it self. He built over 22 LS/VTECS since he started his business, not to mentioon how many motors he has built before that. The only reason I trust him is because:
1) I know where he lives.
2) I have driven his car, and trust me , shifting at 11,000rpms is amazing, but im not sure if he is making any power that high up. My guess is he has enough done to the engine that it would still be making power.
One of his customer bent all the valves and crack the camshaft on a mishift at high RPMS and he just rebuilt it for him for a dinner and a movie.
I know you guys dont think the LS/VTEC setup is very reliable, because if you do it wrong it would leak oil everywhere and stuff, but when I took a look at his engine, you cannot even tell it is a frankenstien motor, and it runs really smooth, except for the idle, its a little higher.
I have no time to speak more on this matter right now because I am going to work, but please give me some more information on the LS/VTEC setup. I just know its quicker and cheaper than a b18c1-c5 motor.
