so I have finally been researching and looking and have finally got 99% percent of my parts and decided I want to start my build. it was a present to myself for getting out the army after 6 yrs.i was going to do an h22 build but my engine builder said why not try to do h23 vtec and and see what you can do out of it. so i said f--- it lets get this going. my goal is 240-250 and 190 tq. i will see what happens.its going into my 4th gen prelude sivtec. possible compression is going to be 12.5 to 1 on 93 octane.

I will have pics soon next couple of days hopefully!!! let me know what you guys think! the reason for people names in caps is thanking them for all the help they have given me...!!!!!!! and yes i know its in prelude section but wanted all motor opinion also.

bump for CC. he does great work

 

i just clicked this to tell you that only 13 yr old girls type like that, i dont even care about your build. have a mod fix that for you.

 

lol

 

wow it shows how much of a help you are. do me a favor and go somewhere else with that attitude help honda-tech not hurt it.

 

lol good luck with the build

 

Good luck with the build. Says you live in Queens, NY. Good luck keeping your car safe

 

ok i aplogize for that its just there is not reason for someone to start bashing the thread already.....that is what causes sometimes people to be hesitant to posting cause you have to have someone be rude and not help just hurt a thread

 

looks like the setup would be tough and reliable. good luck!

 

Thread Title grammer: F
Build: A

Looks pretty stout, GL!

 

i thought i would be a little different but i guess that was wrong i ask moderator to fix it when they can

thanks i am just hoping it puts down me down into possible low 13's and maybe hit 12's

took some quick pics but camera acted up

 

Make a post in the Dynothread after you get this thing tuned. Curious to see how this things performs with the Bisi header.

 

i will its just bisi is a little back up with headers right now so while i wait i will break in the motor and then when i get the header take it to the dyno

 

you will love the graph around 5500 rpm. Just wait. Its going to be a power where you sit in 2nd and punch the gas at 4000 with traction and then the tires break lose around 5500.

fun ****.

 

got pics of some parts. i just fun out that the block is good to go and i should be picking it up in a few days. crank was balanced and block was cleaned and leveled. the pistons where taken care off into the rods. hopefully i get the head this week cause i want to start putting all the stuff together.what sucks is that when i was putting the mainfold together i am missing a freaking rdx clip and i don't know where it is. i've seen that u can use the scion mod but i was seeing if anyone knows where i can get the clip?????? it sucks that i have all this stuff and nowi missing a freaking clip.

 

the only good thing this week was that i was able to get some high grade steel braid hose from my job that we are getting rid off. since i work on helicopters we have a good amount of it left and its good for 1500 psi just buy fittings for the proper spots still wondering if i should do a catch can???

 

bump..any knows where i can get that rdx clip at...

 

I never understood the h23 vtec. Isn't it better to just get a h22 and grab an h23 crank?

 

roskoracing has that sweet rdx rail maybe you should ask him. He seems like a nice guy to deal with.

 

for me the reason was i want to use the h23 block instead of the h22. the manual tensioner comes in that block and most of the squirters are there just have to slightly readjust them so your crank willn't starv from no oil. also i the h22 block walls where not as good as the h23 block. thats my reason behind it. but most diffenetly wanted the tq.

 

Sounds like a cool build, keep us updated

 

You mean the fuel rail he listed in his parts list, then posted pictures of?

Xenocron sells the injector clips with the top hat adapter, I'd guess you could talk him into selling the clip alone

 

Most of the squirters? H23 block doesnt have the oil squirters... and the h23 has the same FRM(Fiber Reinforced Matrix) sleeves that the H22 has.

 

FRM - Fiber Reinforced Metal

Nice looking build so far crazes

In for results.

H23 = No replacement for displacement, your .1 of a liter up on the H22

 

opps my bad...
