Just curious what people are doing for SOHC VTEC builds. I have a customer that wants to do a big build on an D16z6 so I am just looking to see what has been done, for example what cranks are interchangeable for more stroke, and what OEM pistons will raise compression with stock crank. I have always been a B Series guy just never messed with D Series parts. Thanks in advance.

I think the D16Z6 motor has many options.

Here are some factory options.

My setup is in my sig.

 

Ask these guys:

also i think the latest honda tuning magazine has an article on putting the d17 crankshaft into the d16 to pick up some stroke

 

Yep. Just sleeve it and 78mm bore. If you really to want to go at it, throw a D17 crank in as well.

 

Well heres what a allmotor nonvtec sohc sounds like with a full aray of bisimoto parts. There is alot more potential in the nonvtec sohc's than the vtec sohc's. I have had both, raced both, and built both and the nonvtec setups have alot more bang for your buck. A good choice for any entry level sohc is the P-29 pistons, they are higher compression and can be had for 150ish off of ebay with rings.
