i have a d15b7 head from a del sol non vtec with a d16z6 head on it .. is there supposed to be an stainless steel oil line runing from the head to the back of the block as you would do with a lsvtec or do i just have to put the head on?? i had a d15b2 block with the z6 head also and i had an stainless steel braided line for oil from the head to the block was this for nothing?? do i need to transfer the line from one motor to the other?




I want to boost the b7 block with the z6 head.. i got vitara 8:5.1 pistons with shotpeened rods with arp bolts hastings rings and block guard.... someone told me to get a camatic head gasket is this necissary or will an oem gasket be bettter... also will it be better to get aftermarket rod bearings or will brand new oem do the trick... i am trying to run about 18lbs of boost..aslo what will i have to do to the head to make it sufficient.. i am trying to run 10lbs on reg. and 18lbs race.. what is the safest way to do that and am i gettting led the right way with what i already have

 

why did you need 2 threads to ask more or less the same question?

get aftermarket bearings. and 18 lbs? are you sure?

 

you think 18 is too much or not enough

 

18psi is a bit much for a first try. your motor might not last that long.i suggest starting low like 8 or 10 see how the motor takes it.also what kind of tune, size injectors you gonna plan on using?

(also check out the force feed section)turbo

 

880cc is what i was suggested if you have n e other suggestions please feel free to add.. but i will get it tuned reall nice once everythings togetha

 

18 psi doesn't mean anything without knowing the size of the turbo. assuming you're using atleast something in the range of a gt28rs i would say some fairly large injectors would be in order.

it's not a b-series so there are no oil lines to be ran to the head.

lastly, use honda oem main/rod bearings.
