you needed a new block? i have a b16a2. my block is beat thanks to an idiot trying to check for an exhaust leak by over revving it in nuetral.

 

most people are gonna say it is the perfect time to upgrader to a ls or gsr or b20 block. it all depends on what you want and your budget!!!!

 

i need a quick solution this is my daily driver. i neeed reliability. and fast shipping

 

On a budget? Get an b18b keep your tranny. Got some money get a b18c1 or 5. still keep your tranny. If its still good.

id buy another b16 block, gsr if I could find one @ a good price

 

LS/Vtec but it's going to take a while to build if you want to do it right.

 

id say get another b16 block, saves the headaches!

 

whas a good place to order... i want no headaches i have a mechanic thats good.
would a b18c block work nice with stock ecu.. i have a vafc2 but no good tuners in my area. im in norfolk virginia. what would everyone recommend. hey my transmission better still be good i will be pissed... the quafe has lifetime warranty

 

i would get a gsr or ls shortblock...they cant be that be that expensive

 

how did he over rev
it should have a rev limiter??

 

Good time for a poor's man type R

 

in neutral he redlined it on top of the lift for like 3 minutesi was like wtf are you doing then he dropped the car down and started burning up my clutch. then i started to talk **** the the manager the manager told me he had on heavy boots i was heated.

 

this problem needs to be solved.... i need no headaches. should i rebuild the block?should i get another short block.. if i get a b18c can i keep my ecu.. my mechanic hates the vafc i got a lecture today by him telling me its shitty. i had it dyno tuned at abacus in virginia. could this have caused the problem/?? i still think its the overrevving. it was making a rattle up top in higher rpms. i thought it was an exhaust leak of some sort. so i had it put on the lift then the guy just beat the hell out of the engine then it started to knock my mechanic said the knock was coming from the block. it knocks when you first start it. then it goesaway then at 3k it starts to knock again

 

hey thats exactly what mine does....you prob jsut had to adjust your valves. i would look for an ls or gsr shortblock and ditch the vafc for sure, they are shitty

 

before you do anything. You need to figue out what is wrong with the motor first.
It could be the valves out of spec. Have you check on them yet?

 

yeah its def the block. one of the pistons is hitting something. i was hopping it was a valve issue too... i was praying for it to be a valve issue.

 

the vafc has givin me no trouble.. so if i get a b18c block what would need to be done to install that onto my b16a2 head??? would i need a new ecu and would i need a wiring harness etc..

 

like i said before
you need to figue out whats going on with the motor

pull the head off and inspect it
if you dont see anything wrong there

pull the oil pan out and check the bearings/rod

theres no point on getting the b18c block if the head is damaged

 

Make the idiot buy you a new block
