LSV-T
Hey H-T I'm getting my shopping list together because I always like to have everything planned from A-Z before buying parts. Looking for opinions, suggestions from people with experance or what's best for a turbo build.
This is in hybrid because I'm focused on the lsv first, But it will be turbo. First tun e will be 250whp with the ability for 350whp. I understand 300whp can be done on a stock block but I only want to build it once and leave little as possible chamce of it blowing. With that said this is my current planned setup.
Block-B18b
Crank-B18b
Pistons, Rods, arp rod bolts-weisco/ge setup from rsp
New-Water Pump, Oil Pump
Headstuds-Arp
Bearings-Unsure was told Oem is best, aftermarket same, also to use gsr's because there thinner and less resistance(notch rods needed)
Clutch-Unsure haven't looked into one yet
Head-B16
Cams-type r
Injectors-750cc
Springs/retainers-don't see me needing to go past 8.5 so probably not.
Mainly unsure about bearings because as I said many differnt opinions found through research. The comp I'm aiming for 9.5:1 because I read that for street you should keep comp up around 10 unless you want to do high boost. Lastly let me say this is all the produces of reserach, But I always like to get it straight from experienced builders/driver of similar setups.
Sorry for any spelling, etc typed out on my phone. Thank you in advance for any help.

with bearings, either use oem b16 bearings or ACL. either one works as long as you achieve the desired clearance. oem ls bearings are bi-metal. b16 bearings are the same size and tri-metal.
You ask for experience because you have none.... Then insult. 440's are cheap and plentiful and will do what you need them to do, yet you think wasting money and running 50% duty cycle is cool? Have fun, wish you luck.
