Damn those pistons look aweful. For 80 bucks though good pickup

225 at the wheels is easily doable on a stock d-series motor.....if your gonna invest that much money into a b-series, i hope you will shoot for more than 300 wheel....but your plans sound real good

werd, all that work for 225hp? not worth it at all, i would be aiming at 300-400 if i were you

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

are you taking apart the motor on carpet?!?!?!?!

are you taking apart the motor on carpet?!?!?!?!

hahah its on the other side of m basment where we store stuff, so its not an important carpet. I am still trying to find the bolts for the engine stand. Is it true the size for the b18b1 block is 12 X 1.25 mm? i cant find those at the store i was at. But yeah, as soon as its on the engine stand and easier to move around ill be happy.

i said this before i thought it through. Now i am going to do an entire rebuild from the bottom up and will be looking for 3-400 hp. i didnt want to spend alot in the project at first, but qucily changed my mind and now im hoping for higher hp. If im dumping alot of money i want big numbers

Damn those pistons look aweful. For 80 bucks though good pickup

yeah, im looking for some low compression ones right now, so those will be gone

sweet, its coming a long, i wish i had a garage and a $100 motor to experiment with, looks like ass loads of fun

 

[stowey]

looks like a manky old motor at the mo, but once your finished with it Im sure you can get it good as new if not better
