I just got my hand on a D16z6 Longblock and I want to rebuild the Bottomend, currently has 109k miles. I want to do the build by myself (and H-T member SleepEMike) and this will be my first time actually tinkering with ANY motor.

For those of you that are Professional Motor builders and the ones who gets Japanese Honda motors from oversees that are tired and in need of a rebuild, what parts do you replace and/or check for wear?

FYI Im want to run 11.0 comp pistons

Any help or tips appreciated

 

Start with this: Helms manual

That will answer ALL your questions, trust me.

Majority of builders use the Helms manual to build thier engines. Some of the best specs are Honda specs. Rod bearings, main bearings, torque specs, blah blah blah Honda specs is the way to go.

BTW here's a performance oriented book for ya: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obi...07846

 

I built mine with an acura shop manual I have a B18, used all OEM specs for tighting bolts. everything else is put it back together the way u found it.

 

where can I get a honda factory manual from?

Serdar, if you cannot find one online, check out http://www.helminc.com for that is where I bought mine. Before, I had the online versions, shhh, but I couldn't stand not having the book to thumb through right in front of me.
