All Motor * SOHC * Chime In !
Sedan's coming along good. The spare d15 I picked up has a spun rod bearing so I'm rebuilding the one that was in the car. It's out of the car and completely apart now, bore's are honed, parts are cleaned. I'm just waiting to get the head planed and then I will be assembling it this weekend. Should be back on the road soon.

I'm going to put it together stock and just get it running for now . If I end up modding it I'll prob just throw in an si cam and bolton's. We'll see.
i had a lot of d series motors in my civic and a crx with an ls.... the ls in the crx was nasty but when i did a b7/z6 mini-me it actually felt about the same if not stronger... then again the sohc had a skunk2 intake mani and the ls was stock but if you have money you can make nething fast and for right now im gonna keep building sohc's for the simple fact that i can buy a block for $50 and a vtec head for $50 to $100....i dont have the money to throw away for a bseries with 140 hp
New to H-T. Thought i would share my sohc build im working on right now. this is one of them build that have some saying it wont work but if it does i deff want to check it out. Most so far have just rolled there eyes and lol'ed about it. What you guys think. Im hoping the block will be back this week so i can start putting it together.
z6 block
p-29 pistons .20 over
stock rods w/ acl's
8v Head
major p an p work
regrind cam 266/244
y8 intake mani.
Jdm zc 4 to 1 exhaust mani.
Just some of the thing thats going in to it. From everything ive read up on and what im shooting for id like to see 170whp out of it. but like i said its one of them things ill have to wait and see if its going to work out.

Haha no full glass, mild steel cage, full exhaust, 2 seat an full front interior, last time it was scaled was 2140 w/driver and full tank of fuel.

does anyone have a d16 set up list with good hp #s and a good compression ratio. im trying to bulid a good d16 that i could run pump gas with and wont have trouble when i dd it
if you go on bisimoto.com he has alot of D-series dynos with configurations. They are in the Dyno Vault. Also check out one cam only dot com.
Even though my car doesn't really stand up to the majority of the crowd in here, I thought I'd share.
Kind of a basic mild build, just running a near stock Z6 in my Ef Civic Si, Has a Y8 intake manifold, home made intake, shitty alpha werks header and 2 1/4 crush bent exhaust, car weighs 2030 with interior minus the driver. took it to the track last friday and managed to squeeze out a 15.0 at 92 on my second pass of the night hitting the limiter in the first 3 gears (tach is screwy). It's a nice feeling knowing that my $500 motor is stepping into b territory, heh

for ***** and giggles...
my buddy darin (FarmYard on here) and i threw together an A6/Y8 combo with FJT I beams and Vitara pistons, shooting for 11s next year
but for this year, we decided to run the car NA for the break in and took it out to the track
14.71 @ 89mph with a 2.0 60ft. not bad for a low comp forged rod build
the 1990 Civic DX does weigh in at 1770lb tho. hehe
