Question Supercharged LS/VTEC swap?

I want to build a b-series LS/VTEC engine to put in my 02 coupe. I have a twin screw supercharger to put on it as well. Any thoughts/advice/insight out there?

Re: Supercharged LS/VTEC swap?

look into legalities of the swap. rule of thumb is older engine into newer chassis is a no-go.
