I did an all motor LS-VTEC build with a B18B1 block. It's all together now, ready to go into my Integra. I've been meaning to ask you guys about this long ago, when it was still apart. This was the only piece out of all the nuts and bolts I had left.

Any ideas? It looks like an oil squirter of some kind to me but I can't make it fit anywhere....

 

You are a little late. Oil restrictor that goes in the block. Just need to remove the head and install. What else did you forget?

 

Looks like no vtec for you.

Can someone be more accurate with where exactly it goes? It goes on the top of the block? Between the block and the head?

This is an Ls-Vtec motor btw, and this is STILL absolutely necessary?

 

Yea, you need it. Look in your Helms manual.

 

thats the oil control jet.. other terms aplicable.. like what donF used..

i think it has to be there.. to control oil goin to the head.. or to control pressure... sumthin like that..

 

Yeah I know what it is but I still don't know where it goes. Any input?

 

No, obviously you don't know what it is or you wouldn't be asking us.... take the head off and look. AFTER you buy a helms manual.

 

Since I don't want to really be an *** today here are pictures of two of the oil control orifices.....

Without this your head will overflow with oil, and you will have little to no oil pressure.

HUUUUGE mistake, but better that you asked and found out before you ran the motor, Mistakes are how we learn.

 

Put it back in. I had a kid years ago did this and could not figure out why he could only get 15psi at 6000 rpm lol

No problem. Enjoy pulling the head and reinstalling your quarter sized part.

 

oops.

dont forget to check the Oring on it for knicks.

 

in most situations when building a engine. you should have "bonus parts" left over.

Yeahhhhhhh, not me. I fear any builder who has "bonus" parts leftover...

 

my 50 cents is still better that your quarter

 

BTW how did you miss that?

must of put it in his pocket..

 

Yeah how did you miss that? At least you found out what it was before it was too late...

I wouldn't let the comments discourage you. Some people forget that every expert was once a beginner. At least you had the stones to ask. Like Natural Aspirations said, mistakes are how we learn.

Is this your first build?
