Default B18B or B18C

My buddy is buying back his old G2. When he owned it before he bought an engine for it and he still has it. Since he already has a B18B he considering building it into a street monster,cam,crank,valves and springs, everything. Some of our friends are trying to tell him to put a B18C in it. What do you think? Money is not an object, but let's not get silly on some stuff.No F/I.

i'd say its better to start with a b18c. but once you start replacing parts like the ckrank, pistons, cams, it becomes less important. but i think the b18c has oil squirters that the b18b wont, and you'll start with a better vtec head.

The all motor B18B tops out at about 200 whp... I wouldn't consider that a street monster. If you do LS/VTEC, fully built, you can get an extra, oh, 50 hp or so.

F/I is the way to go with these engines. Want a 1.8 Liter V8 Eater? Need turbo.
