I just got a b18c1 gsr bottem end..i have a b16a2 head..how much horsepower would that make? would it be worth building? Like boring the block out and head work??

 

15,201whp

 

haha smart ***!

 

its worth building if what your running already is crap.

 

Bore it out son

 

a bajillion

 

surely is worth building (build it right and get 200+ HP)

 

i have just b16a2 now, but want lots more power, pushing like 200 hp now with my bolt ons, but wanna push close to 300 without turbo or nos..

 

thats why i was asking wether or not i should just build my motor i have now or build the gsr bottom end and b16a2 head and have a frankenstein engine..which one do you think would make more power?

 

B series motor with 300 hp on n/a motor that'll be fully built with high compression 14to1. B18c1 block and b16 head that be a "poorman's type r".

 

personally i would sell/trade the block for a b20z high compression motor and put your b16a2 head on it, since you want to swap the block. depends on your budget?

hell if you want power but cant figure out how to get it then just send it in for a complete build at any reputable shop/company.

 

mmmmmmmmm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa is that vtec i hear?

 

And I would venture to say your B16A2 isn't stock internally. Bolt-ons generally refer to I/H/E(Intake/Header/Exhaust). So let me get this straight, If your engine has stock internals and the general bolt-ons refereed to above and you think your making 200HP..I call BS. I/H/E isn't going to take a 160BHP engine and bring it up 40BHP to 200. Unless you have one hell of a factory freak of a motor on your hands. Sorry Bud.

 

If I was goin for high n/a power it would have to be a b20z bottom end with b16 head, and I want your b16 if it's making 200 from bolt ons..

 

You will never attain 300whp N/A from a Bseries with anything less that 14:1 compression and race fuel.

 

post a dyno sheet to prove your 200hp b series with bolt ons
