Has anyone else got a P72 block...


is this something special or should I sell it?
it's identical to a B18Cx but it's stamped P72 instead.

 

Never seen that before. Did you pull it out of your car or buy it?

 

?????????????

 

wtf i've never seen anything just stamped p72

 

looks fishy.

wats up with the upside down A and the short seriel code?

 

lol..it looks like it was welded back on maybe?

 

I have absolutely no idea!
the block was given to me from a friend in Japan.

 

ive never seen that before in my life!!

 

that looks like someone grinded off the orginal stamping and made there own stamp not knowing what there doing

 

Now what are you planning Ricardo?!

 

looks like a restamp, all the numbers arent lined up

--- Unless you got that ubbber special JDM y0 bling blang block. I heard it ups your Hp by 75%

I'm not.

 

FF-b cruz, im gonna have to say thats a restamp too, unless u can produce another picture of a p72 block. i looked on a honda website for engine block codes and they dont list a p72 block, only the p72 head that was mentioned before. i dont know what your talking about with the japanese R blocks, they arent stamped p72.

...Skeeter

 

block from bizarro world?

I never said all the other blocks came stamped with a p72 there. I don't know if you have ever seen a JDM B18C(type-R) block before but the block numbers aren't lined up.

Most likely this isn't a block out of a production car but this could have been a block used by a japanese tuning company for testing..


also could you post up a link of that 'honda website for engine block codes'.

edit: notice the original thread creator is from London. I doubt the block is a stolen 're-stamp'

 

Thats wierd, but it does look like they ecthed out the B18C and etched in the P72.

If its not....uhm.....cool.
