Default Race Car Build Part 2

Well it has been awhile since i have had a chance to even drive the car, but the time is coming very soon.

Last years best was a 10.7 @ 127 with a stock B17A1.. meaning untouched except for headstuds. To view that build/parts check out the old thread for pics of the car as well.

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1575930

Now, I just finished up a bunch of stuff and figured I would make a new thread instead of brining the old one back from the dead. These are the things that have changed.

Motor:
AEBS sleeved 84mm B18b1
Weisco Pistons
Import Builder Rods
ARP headstuds
OEM honda bearings
Golden Eagle Ls/vtec kit

Head:
Crower Springs and Retainers
Blox P1 cams

Turbo setup:
T3/T67
RLD ramhorn
And a New fuel cell

As it sits right now it looks like this.













I hope to have it running when I get back from vacation. I need to do a disc brake swap, mount the kirkey seat and do my window net. Then it should be ready to go.

I like the tape-mounted fuel cell, John.

Yes yes.. it fits in there really snug. I am having Wes weld those brackets on sometime this week. So I had to tape them on so he can do it.

Thanks for all the comments. I just got back from a week-long much needed vacation to ocean city. I had one hell of a time and on a real good note, the rest of the parts came in. So I might have it running this satruday.

I sold that car to my sister. It is running really well, better than I thought it was going to. I will have some numbers for it soon. (It was originally her car before I got ahold of it and put the built motor/setup in it.

The fuel setup is shown in the first and 3rd pictures. A/N lines go from the small cell where the battery box use to be, to the pump, to the rail.

Back from the dead.. The car is finally up and running. Just waiting on my valve cover to be done to finally break the motor in.

Then off to the new dyna pack for some low boost numbers!

School and work kicked my *** this past 6-7 months, so now that I finally graduated more time can be put into this car.

As soon as the car gets back into the shop. Life is hectic now with the new dyno. I am working on getting a 44mm wastegate to replace the 38mm on the manifold. I foresee that to be a problem.
