I am a firm believer in OVERDOING IT and doing it right the first time, if you are in the motor alreay then Put some Manleys, Crower Billet(not econo) or Pauters in there.

 

yup yup, i got manley's (the F-R ones) just because i wanted to "over" do it

I run Pauter in my B16A that made 676whp and the new B18C motor has Manley/Full Race going in!

 

I'm sure he wants some cheaper.

 

im not looking to make 600whp right off. i dont have 600-900$ to sling around for rods.

Sure we all do, BUT you don't cut corners on the motor. Buy cheap knock off rims but when you have a rod through the motor, it would've been cheaper to get the $300 more rods then to get a new block and new pistons and rods etc etc. Not to say Eagles will do it BUT I feel more comfortable knowing I was proactive instead of reactive. I made 500whp on Eagles but when the sleeves sunk I swapped them out for Pauter for more INSURANCE!

 

For sure..but i guess we have to ask how much power he's planning on making?

 

true. . .


and boostfed. . .whats wrong? the b16a is done?

How much he is planning on making now! Most people have a goal set, usually it is low then everyone knows that boots get's increased and people get used to the old power and want more. So overdo it and be ready for anything!

 

about 430. my friend has 391whp in his coupe and ive been driving it for several months, that doesnt get old...i think ill be really happy with 430 for a WHILE. i was thinking of building the **** out of a b18b after i get this build done. its an LS/VTEC turbo setup.
