hi well i have a 93 del sol sitting at home with a d16z6 and im looking to getting a b18c from my friend when i get back to the states. I love imports but dont really now much about them so my ? is if im trying to push anywere from 300 to 350 whp do i have to rebuild it and wat parts would you recomend any input will help...thanks

 

300-350 whp is a LOT for a del sol, its not impossible or even that hard to achieve (given the right budget) but know that a 200-250whp del sol can be faster than a 300-350 whp mustang or camaro. I would suggest taking time to read through these forums, do some searching, read the FAQs and some build threads and try to educate yourself a little about Hondas

You will need to go turbo to make those kinda of numbers. Depending on what model B18C (ITR or SIR-G), you may have to swap to lower compression pistons. This will give you the opportunity to use forged internals and have the block sleeved.

Honda's are small, light & efficient. You should probably just swap it in and see how you like it stock first before spending many thousands building the block and adding a turbo system.

 

thats good advice, I would swap first then decide if you want more power. My swap is bone stock right now (except for bolt ons) and its still quick as hell and a rush to drive, plus its extremely reliable and gets crazy mpg.

 

Mine too. 34-36 mpg while still blasting up freeway on-ramps is just ****!

 

200whp in a lighweight Honda is already fun, quick, and reliable. Swap first and cruise around stock to see how you like the feel and mpg...

 

U do not need sleves for 350 hp jus get low comp pistos nd set of rods gud low comp headgasket and boost it :D

 

alright yall say just swap it in and try it but would i have to rebuild it since my friend was using it or can i just drop it in

 

Unless your friend broke it, it'll just drop right in. Unless he's telling you it needs a rebuild or something. Hopefully you'll get a chance to drive it in his car before you buy it. What makes you think it needs a rebuild?

 

no i tought it would be better if i do it wile its out than have to pull it out and do it again

 

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

I would just turbo that d16z6, and build up on that, and boosting the **** out of it. sounds cheaper than the whole swap ordeal + boosting, when a D series engine, can handle a good amount of boost.
