ok im in the process of getting a motor together and im using all spare parts i have lying around, so heres the run down let me know if this will be ok..

b18b block stock bore and crank
gsr rods
pr3 pistons
gsr wather pump and oil pump
gsr timing belt?/
and all new gsr bearings??
with a b20z2 head..

so will this work together not looking for a lot of power just a decent low buck motor for my hatch,,lmk wat you guys think

 

the crank wont work with the rods... u need pr4 or LS rods and engine bearings... the rest is kinda peachy even to the tbelt

 

edited title for searching reasons. Please take note of the changes i made and use it when you make other threads.

 

If by B20Z2 head you mean P8R head, it'll work, mostly, except that the combustion chambers have an 84mm diameter, while your cylinders have an 81mm diameter. Not the best option. Search for P8R head or something for more info on that. Also what Chris said, you can't use those rods with that crank. However, I BELIEVE you can swap in an ITR or GSR crank, which then of course would let you use those rods, but bust out your calculator to make sure everything fits right before doing that.

 

yeah i have a gsr crank i could use also but sorry when you say get the calculater?? im not sure how to do that and see if it would work,,,

 

Well, you'll have to do some searching to see exactly what's required, as far as any modification to the block (if any) and what kind of piston-valve clearance you'll be seeing. Online compression ratio calculators will give you some idea of this, but you'll have to dig through the archives too. Search for both of these, plug in your numbers/parts and see what you get. The calculator remark was for the math involved with stroke and so forth to see if that setup would have the pistons punching through the compression chamber in the head.

 

well with a gsr crank it should be ok i have seen them used in ls blocks before so i think it should be ok...but if anyone has any info that would be great..

 

I also remember them being used, but it's been awhile since I was certain of the details, and I don't want to tell you the wrong thing. I would find out about how the pistons will be positioned with respect to the combustion chamber though.

 

will do thanks...
