Re: (four1one)
chances are you bent some valves with these crap interface motors 
timing belt usually break under higher loads = higher rpm = SOL
unless your really lucky for it to give under 2500 rpm or idleing

If the B18A is an interference engine, why does the RPM matter at all? The valves will still hit the pistons at 700RPM or 7000RPM. With a VTEC engine that is different because the non-VTEC mode should not interfere, which leads to the RPM dependence.
