b18c1 block question
i have a b16a2 block and im planning on getting some 84-85mm sleeves. now if i come across a b18c1 block would it be worth it to get the b18 block and put 84-85mm sleeves in it and then put my b16 head on teh b18c block? how much of a difference is it between the two blocks with the same size sleeves? but i am gonna stay with the b16 head since it flows better than the b18c head

Re: b18c1 block question (tgh99si)
well instead of having a 1.8L, you would net a 2.0L setup, that is built...
Depends on what your setup is... and what your plans are...
if the motor is out.. or not... ex.. ex.. ex....
search is key...
If your boosting alot... I wouldnt go over 83mm bore... and since you have a Si... judging from your name that is... Id pick up a b18 block and sleeve it to 83mm.....

Re: b18c1 block question (tgh99si)
The head choice is all up to you... We really run either but more commonly the P72... Most flow charts will show you that the P72 cylinder head flows better up top sacrificing a little midrange where as the PR3 does better midrange but loses up top... You know me, I'm all for the B18C... The the same compression, etc. the GSR will support a bigger turbo and is capable of more output than the B16A... Just my $0.02 again

Re: b18c1 block question (Mpir3)
If your going to sleeve anything, get the b18 block. Thats my current build up right now. B18C1 bottom end w/ a ported B16 Head = Type-R set up minus pistons and cams. Should be a excellent set up sleeved to 83mm

I was under the impression that b16's had main girdles also...at least I thought so.

Re: (Kataku2K3)
i might be able to get my hands on a b18c5 block, how would this go with my b16 tranny, and my b16 head for fi set up, i would get 84mm sleeves, rods, and pistons. is the stroke the same as a gsr?

Same stroke, same displacement.... all B18 vtec blocks have the same displacement.....
just crank/pistons/rods vary from motor to motor.... There is not much difference between the "JDM" and "USDM" ITR blocks, except for slight compression differences.

Re: (tgh99si)
Yea, the ITR crank does weigh a little more than the GSR as it has larger factory counter balances... You're not going to notice any difference either way so it really doesn't matter... Just have your entire rotational assembly rebalanced once you get your rods, etc and you'll be set...
