hey guys as the title says this guy is tryn to sell me a b16 bottom end with a gsr head with type r valvetrain so my question was do you thik this is a good deal ?

meaning would this swap make a good amount of hp anf tq ? around how much you guys think?

 

 

come on guys some1 has to kno how this swap is

 

?

 

how much? same as a b16a with type r cams and a little bit higher compression

 

Probably not much torque if it has a b16 bottom end. It'd make more sense to do it the other way around, b16 head on b18c1 block.

 

i jus found out that the motor is freshly rebuilt and sleeved with pistons and rods and it had itr cams .. so wat u guys think ?

 

>?

 

anyone?

 

come on guys

 

how much is he going to charge you....

 

i got that setup in my ek, it makes less than a gsr

 

There is no replacement for displacement, it will make slightly more hp than a stock B16, because a GSR head yields higher compression combustion chambers, the ITR valve train wont really do much more unless you have the cams to increase your powerband.

Id say the long block is worth no more than 1200 depending on the mileage

 

well let me tell you guys exactly what its got. like i said b4 its a b16 bottom end that was completey bored and cleand and then it was sleeved and has new pistons im not sure what kind they are. the bottom end has like 50 miles on it. now for the head. it has the itr cams and valve train and for the tranny its a gsr. the guy says its makin 200 hp easy... so what you guys think?

 

you still haven't said what he's trying to charge you. That has alot to do if it's worth it or not...

 

o yeh sorry he wants 2k for the complete swap

 

2k for a complete swap i say go for it cause it will cost you more to order a stock b16 swap from hmotors

 

Free to me.

But seriously...more info like what year and estimated mileage would be helpful.

 

wat does every1 else think of it for the price?

 

Sounds like you've got yourself a homebrew B18c5. Whatever the ITR engines do, it's probably not much less/more than that.

what you have to ask yourself is why would someone do all that work then turn around and sell it with 50 miles on it, doesn't add up. just be careful, you don't know how the motor was put together, it could have some issues

^very true i would be very careful due to the fact that he's turning around and selling it with 50 miles on it but to be honest with you thats a good price but just find out why he's selling it
