i'm just preparing myself... but during the summer i'm going to have to commute about 50-60 miles a day just to go to summer school, at first i was debating to just buy a stock motor and run it from there... but i'm almost done with the motor i'm building.. the build up is a as follows

Head

ITR Cams
Titianium Springs + Retainers

Block

B16
Sleeved
9.0-9.5:1 CR
SC61

Management

AEM EMS

i'm concerned about the lifespan on the motor, i don't want to ruin something with so much money put into it....so i'm looking for your guys' opinions

any help is appreciated!

thanks

 

I do I do I do. I just put 2500+ miles on it over the course of 2 weeks driving to and back from my parents. I put about 30 miles a day on it to school, and 10-15 for other misc driving around. Keep in conservative, run lower compression, lower timing, and lower boost and there's no reason it shouldn't last a long time.

 

get a good tune and stop worrying

nice, thanks y0! anymore?

 

i drive my car over 600 miles a week easy.....fully built and turboeed

 

My built motor honda is my only car (besides when I break it and have to borrow the partents)... but that aside, yeah, I'd trust it just like I trusted my honda stock. Unless your winding out the gears 484834 miles away from home, what is there to go wrong?

ya mines my only car too , and daily drivin

 

i'm worried cuz i plan to race it as well, so i guess i should race it towards the end of summer school! i have a backup car, but it's OLD SCHOOL! 1986 Nissan 300zx in your face! it's just really bad on gas, it's like 170 on a full tank, and has like over 210xxx on it

 

i do

 

I do....lots of people I am sure do the same. Like the guy before said, tuning is the key.

 

I do.

 

It can take it

 

if its not a full race ready chasis, then drive that bitch everywhere
