Not sure who all has been keeping up with my stupid threads but I just had a few questions. I'm doing a B20V and it's because I blew up my B16A. A few people have been telling me to mill the head and have it magnafluxed(sp)? First of all, I'm really not sure what Magnafluxing is, also, how am I will I be able to visually tell if I actually NEED to do that ****? Other than that I've got everything else I need to complete my swap part wise as of tonight. Please let me know if you guys have any comments.


Thanks a bunch!

(By the way, my Mugen valve cover came in! It's blue!)

you want to sell you B16 let me know

 

Well first, let me tell you what all I found to be wrong with it.
(Remember, I'm doing the swap for a reason)

----------------------------------------
Ate up Piston 3
Rings on Piston 1
and it might be cracked on the driver-side rear
----------------------------------------

Let me clean it all up and I'll tell you if it's cracked or not. And no, you wouldn't get the head.

 

cool let me know i am looking for a builder engine

 

Ahh cool, got any ideas on my head?

 

I suppose nobody has any ideas.

That's cool. I'll just bolt it together and see what happends.

 

Try reading around in the All motor forum, search.

 

magnafluxing(checkinng the rods for cracks and what not- no strengthening

 

Sorry for not searching first, just thought I'd get a quicker reply this way. Thanks for the information though!

So does anyone know how I can visually tell if my head is damaged enough to be milled? Before I waste another head gasket putting the motor together?


Thanks ahead.

 

Bumpity!
