Interested in building motor

I currently has a mugen intake,SMSP headers and 2.5" exhaust.
I wanted to work on the motor. I got toda cams coming with toda valves and springs.
Planning to up compression on pistons also.
I wanted to do a 84mm bore and 89mm stroke.
Basicly a ls crank and ls size rods.
I was wondering if the ls crank would fit. I heard it could hit the oil squirters. Is this true?
Would I have to modify anything in my B18C5 to make ls crank and rods fit properly?
Why am I doing ls crank? with a little more displacement, i should get a little more lower end torq. Is it worth it? what do you guys think?

If I was going to put a LS crank 89mm stroke crank into my B18C5, would it hit the oil squirters?? If it does is there anyway to make it work??

Not really sure but why go with a LS crank? Why not micro polish and balance the ITR one if ANYTHING? I know a lot of people that upgrade to TypeR cranks and dont do nothing else to it. I know the TypeR crank can hold heavy louds!

I heard if you used forged pistons that you would'nt need oil squiters, this true?
