By ls vtec, it means ls block, b16 head.

Anyway, some quick google action would tell you to use the studs for the head you will be using.

Yep, the b16/type r heads are similiar, the gsr head is different.

I've always read gsr studs for a ls/vtec setup.

I'm going to check mine sometime in the next year.

gsr head studs for lsvtec is the most common

If you are going straight LS there are 2 studs that are longer than the gsr studs (middle studs I think)
