and No its not a ricer sticker on my spark plug cover, its a bullet aluminum cover from acura. and I am getting the purple oil cap re-anodized to a differnt color

2

just saw this on h-t :tup:

3

damn ken. you’re everywhere…lol

love the new setup.
looks awesome.

4

yeah i am everywhere. Hell you brought me to this forum. and since I got the motor in I been telling everyone I could of. and been posting it on forums like a mofo.

5

looks good

ditch that b16 intake mani and the spark plug cover :tup:

6

Lookin’ good. How long did it take you?

7

Looks good except for the spark plug cover. Acura part or not, it looks like it’s from Autozone. What compression pistons did you go with?

8

Lookin good

9

Looks clean, :tup: to doing your own work.

x…

10

Looks good, but ya should of de-greased the engine bay, and then took a wire brush to the tranny.

11

good job, we need some numbers

12

the manfold will be going soon, the spark plug cover will be getting re-anodized to a different color. it took 6 hours yesterday to pull out the old motor and install the new. I went with 9:1 on the pistons for the fact is I am planning on some kind of FI either turbo or supercharger. I really didnt have that much time to spend cleaning the engine bay or tranny, so that is my project for this weekend

13

Doesn’t a B16 head flow better than the B18c5? Just wondering

14

^ yeah thats what i was thinking, So you basically made a better type R motor, just the valve train is a little shitter.

15

how long did this take you to do everything

16

what are you guys talking about… hes got a b16 head on there… ??

Looks great btw, very nice and clean… i like it.

17

i definitely like what you have done

b16 head flows better then type-r?

type r is port/polished isnt it?

explain why, if anyone knows

18

b16 head flows better than a gsr - but I would assume that a type r head is equal or better than a b16, as far as flow characteristics. Time to check out honda-tech…

19

the b16 head is the same casting as the itr, but the itr is stock pnp’ed, considering he built the motor he prob did shit to the head, i hope…

edit: think the itr has bigger valves too

20

yes it says redone built b16 head
