Del Sol Swap
I'm looking into swapping a B18C into my 'sol, so i've got a few questions:
first of all, does anyone know anything/have any opinions about JUN Racing's Stroker kit for the B18C? I'm thinking about getting that. Also, with new Pistons, crankshaft, Rods, sleeves, etc. how much boost do you think i could pound into a B18C? And finally, would it be better to try and swap for the GSR tranny too? or keep the Del Sols? Any answers will be much appreciated.

Re: Del Sol Swap (cnydelSolHybrid)
I'm looking for an extremely fast Del Sol, it seems that most of the Sol's I see are all show and no go, so I want a Sol that is both show and extra go. At first i'm only looking for drag speed, if i want street or racing handling later on i'll look into that.

only an 11.9 with 500 hp? If you have suspension and slicks i think your expectations are a little low. But sounds liek the ******* bomb anyway.

Re: Del Sol Swap (Del Soul)
I'd say skip on the stroker kit and just sleeve the block, build the bottom end, and head. If you're not going to be running a crazy amount of power or PSI, Just stick with the GSR transmission. Look around there Forced Induction forum; there's a lot of knowledge floating around in there.

If you want the baddest-assed, most reliable motor then try sleeving a B16A block and going 84mm and then boost the **** our of it. It'll be right at 1.8L but still retain that near-perfect B16A rod ratio unlike the 1.8L blocks. This means that there will be less pressure on the sides of your pistons and cylinder walls.
