Heya! What would you guys recommend as max rev on a b18c6 with the following setup?

Block b18c6:

- Eagle h-beams
- CP Pistions 12:5:1
- Blockguarded
- Stock crank
- ARP headstuds
- OEM gasket

Head b16a (Milled 1mm for MORE comp (1,3kg)):

Crower steg 2 camshafts
Crower dual vavle springs
Crower retainers
Edelbrock Victory X IM
68mm TB

 

whenever your motor quits making power, my motor stops making power after 8.3k so my rev limit is set to 8.5k

 

but u can prob rev higher

 

....if you just want to make more noise, hurt your motor and eventually blow it up.

As stated above, the correct answer is, when it stops making power and assuming you are running the proper valvetrain for your cams etc.

 

Well the Intake makes power from 7000-10000rpm. And the cams stops producing power at 9500 rpm.

 

can I ask how you know this?

With my b16 block i'm runing with now with the head parts i wrote above only gives me power at high end!

 

That's what marketing says but I guarantee that once you put your car on the dyno, you won't find it making power up that high. That's the lesson here, catalogs don't determine redline on an engine. The dyno is what will tell you where your redline will be.

 

Exactly! We had it in the dyno when we tuned it. And it only gave high end power...

 

which was what exactly? If you were already at the dyno, you would have already known the answer to your question.

 

I rev mine with heavy PCTs on stock rods to 9.3K (peaking @9K).
U should rev it a bit over peak power too...

 

My question is how much would you recommend me to rev with a b18c6 block with the setup i wrote. Right now i'm still running the b16 block.

 

like stated in previous posts, it's hard to just guess what is a good redline would be. you need to take it to the dyno and see were your peaking at, and set your redline based on the what your engines peak rpms are

 

Okey, thanks for the help

 

is there a c6?

 

its the same as the JDM B18C. Same engine, different code as it's for the European market. It has the same header as on the US B18C5, and is rated at 190HP
