Default Getting rid of the swap for another swap...

...yup. Time to part out the B18C1 and make room for an H22. Faster times will be accomplished easier in a daily driven hatch this way. I'm almost sad to see my C1 go. I plan on totally rebuilding the H22 before I swap it in. Skunk2 intake manifold (I'll be first in line when it comes out the end of summer), stage 2 cams, valvetrain; Arias 12:1 pistons; resleeved block bored out 2mm; etc...

Hopefully with mad tuning, Quiafe's help, and a good suspension setup I should be able to net some very low 12's, possibly high 11's. We'll see - I'll keep you guys updated.

DAMN! You just made of money huh? Well if you want to sell the B18C1 I think I might know someone who wants to buy it. How much are you selling it for? Hopefully not that much since we know you got that "special" deal.

You all know what I'm talking about when I say "special" deal. I don't think you're gonna get $4000 bucks for that motor and if you don't know why then just ask me next time you see me.

I know the H22 can rock when done right.

Brian has had that H22 in there for years... I think he wants to go for the B18C1 since James has been really successful with his in his HB...

Brian was doing bad at the track cuz something is wrong with his tranny. He took it apart serveral times the week before but just cant get it to work right. His motor is very strong and has even more horses this season than last. Yes he is "considering" selling his motor, runs good and very strong just his tranny was acting up. He was just upset at the track cuz he was expecting to hit low 12's. Also when he hit 12.5 he had less done to his motor than James had done to his. Its a real good motor just hard to work with.

The H22 has a lot of potential though... 2Point6 has a H22 stroked to 2.57L, and a lot of tuning... His motor is in a 4G Accord, and he ran a 13.2 at Firebird, so I can only imagine what he could do with it at a lower altitude.
