Im pretty much finishing up my car from getting a complete overhaul. Just out of curiousity...how many of you are running Blox Type B Cams? I have a decent build...nothing major, but enough to get some good HP. I need to know what I can rev to being SAFE.

In a nutshell, here are a few of the major things done to my motor B18C1:

Port and Polish Head w/ Valve Job
CTR Pistons (81.50)
Blox IM
Blox Type B Cams
Blox Retainers and Dual Valve Springs
RC440 Injectors
Walbro Fuel Pump
B&M FP Regulator
Mr. Gasket Fuel Rail
Skunk TB
12.5lb Flywheel
LSD
Exedy Clutch
JDM Type R Crank Pulley
Hondata S200
DC Header
RSR Exhaust
Straight Pipe
Toda Timing Belt

Thats pretty much it as far as engine and tranny. Basically nothing is stock...everything was replaced - yep, even the little stuff (Dizzy, Mounts, Belts, etc). Let me know what some of you are redlining at safely without blowing a motor. The only stock items are pretty much my bottom end (GSR Rods, CTR Pistons, etc).

 

if you want to be dead safe i have always thought that you could safely rev to the highest limit of the least powerfull part, ie. your gsr rods were ment for around 8xxx so i wouldn't go past that, but thats just being safe

 

that thing would easily see 9k everyday if i owned it...and i'd feel safe about it..


GSR...type r...same ****...don't be worried.....


but hey...i'm just someone looking at a computer screen telling you to rev your car daily to 9k...take it as you willl....but my brother ran his stock R to 9300 everyday....only problem was valve seals...

 

Thanks...I think 8500 will be safe.

When I get on the Dyno in a week or so, Ill see how much pull it has throughout the band.

Thanks.

 

i've set my redline at 9000 rpm with only eibach valve springs, itr lost motion assemblies, blox type A cams, and skunk2 intake manifold.

no problems
