I did a search but none of the topics were related to what I am asking. I just bought a 94 B18C1 and was just going to replace the gaskets and timing belt/water pump before putting into my car. But when i thought about it and decided that I wanted to build it up since the motor is out. Anywho my goal is to hit around 180-200whp. Since I have no experience in building an NA motor I need your help. Oh and the car will need to be reliable and on pump gas since it will be DD.

The parts that I have bought so far is the blox IM, pro products 68mm TB and re-chipped p28 (I may have to get a different chip now). I plan to use P30 pistons to bump up my compression (not sure if I should go STD or OS). I also plan on changing all my bearings and rod & head bolts. As for the head, what valvetrain should I go with (I was thinking omniman but not sure if it will help me reach my goal). As for the cams I was thinking about using the blox type b's. as for the header i found a brand new jdm vibrant 4-1 header for $200 from a local (i know that header isnt that great but it's something that i can afford for the time being). Let me know what you guys think. TIA!!

 

Sounds like you already have a nice setup in mind

 

i got a set of brand new type b cams for sale if you're interested. But yeah, good start. Maybe look into b16 tranny if you're not driving too much.

 

By the way, synergy, are you from central cali? I grew up hearing about a crew in (661) called Synergy

cool so if i follow through with the parts i stated i should be doing pretty good w/o P&P'ing the head? what numbers do you think i might get. of course tuning plays a big factor. i just want a rough estimate of where i may be.

Hard to say how much power you put down, there are too many variables. You'll have to take it to a dyno and find out. You can get more power via headwork, just take the head to a reputable machine shop that knows what they're doing.
