Default wanna bore the b18c instead of the b20!! need advice!!

i already did a search!!!!!!!

hey guys...well my plan on doin the b20 is dead...i was strongly advised on jut boring out my b18c to 84.5mm and resleeving...just wondering if anybody hase done this kinda work and could please help me out with some misc info that i might need to know...also how much does this kinda work cost???? this is gonna be my daily driver..lol....

i figured that boring out the b18 would be more reliable than the b20...with this setup does anybody know if i can rev high maybe to 9500 rpm or what??? also i thought it would be better expecially i have oil squiters andthe crank gridle over the b20.....

if i did bore i would of course get eagle rods and some high comp pistons from either JE or endyn with some new rings....

is there any thing that i might ned to know???????

You should consider adding deck height to get a better rod ratio if you're going to 9500 rpms.

You would need to resleeve the block to bore it out to 84.5mm. Look to spend at most 1000 for resleeving.

This is what we did to a B18C GSR motor:
- resleev and bore to 84mm
- use a 90 Prelude 2.0L crank
- Eagle LS rod
- JE pistons
one problem is that when the crank is in, ipoo pooing the oil jets, have to grand off a bit of the bolts for the oil jets, I think the motor is close to 2.1L

This is like a project car that we wanted to make it into a 2.0L and the guy doesn't want to use a B20 block, and seems the only crank will fit is a 90 Prelude 2.0 crank, and it did work out fine

No such thing as a 5th gen integra.

To get a 2.0L b18c you are gonna hafta re-sleeve, and bore over to 84.5mm. You also need an 85mm cometic headgasket, or you need to open up the stock gasket. Further, you are also going to want to get the head deshrouded to match the 84.5mm bore of the block. This alone will give you a worse r/s ratio than a normal b18c, so revving to 9500 on a daily basis probably isn't the best idea, even with upgraded rods, pistons. (To rev that high you are gonna need to spend lots of $$ making the head strong enough to handle those revs).

There are a few guys on this board who have done this already, you might wanna IM them.

jsut boring out isnt going to affect your rod/stroke ratio if that is what you are saying. or are you talking about the prelude crank???? i am confused.

you loose effeciency or you get piston slap depending on what pistons you run..

deshrouding is more of a valve thing.. what you need to do to the head is SPOT FACE.

I personally think the GE sleeved B18c block with all b18c components (crank)
is much more reliable than b20 or b18a/b w/sleeves

prelude and LS cranks blow goats.

i think the best bet would b 2 stick with the b18c and just bore it to 84mm and if possible use an oring with all other b18c parts!! more reliable and can rev that biatch all day!!
