Default Which Block Should I Buy To Sleeve??

Ok so im going to be putting alot of HP into my prelude. Im going to fully build the motor from bottom to top myself and i would like to know which block would hold up the best to high horsepower and RPM's after its been sleeved. H23, F22, H22 etc...
Also with a big turbo which would be a good tranny to get. I was thinking about an accord tranny because of the longer gears. Thanks alot guys

Sounds like you need to read the FAQs. You do not need an Accord tranny for longer gears and the sleeve job is what would determine how much boost a block could handle, not whether it's H23, F22, or whatever.

Actually seaborgium sleeves would be the best. You should read the faq's.

Titanium sleeves!! Where in the world will you get those??

Who told you anything about titanium sleeves? If it's the same friends that say an H23 block is only good for 400hp then they are completely retarded.

That's a new one, sleeves made of titanium. Maybe its from the recent discovery of unobtainium in the lakes of minnetonka .

u should buy a D15, because of the low displacement you can boost 30 pounds and have GREAT torque. 1.5liters at 16:1 CR with a big turbo is the way to go.

Many people would dissagree, even with the FRM coated Mahle pistons many people have their doughts. The stock H-series blocks are OK for low-boost levels ( 6-8 psi ~ 250-300whp ). It's a must to sleeve if you want to see 300whp+ reliablly.
