Hello! New here, coming with a 1990 si hatch (chatty cathy) started a build a couple weeks ago, I've got a k20a3 to drop in with a pte bb 7275 on e 85, I'll start a build thread soon. New to the rice box game so I'll ask opinions frequently, thanks in advance for any input!

 

Plans changed.. b18b1 with .25 over p30 pistons and b16 head is the motor I'm going with. Probably go na at first and end up with a smaller turbo so I can keep the 7275 for my mustang. I've only tinkered with the car and motor here and there, I'm not really in a rush but have tossed around a lot of ideas. The car had a b series in it before I got it as a roller and was "clearanced" for the alternator with a bfh so I cut it out and welded in a recessed box to clean that up. We've cleaned up and painted all the suspension arms and such (minus coil over parts) black. Fabricated some top mounts for a fluidyne radiator, still have to do the bottoms. The front cross member is pretty hacked up so I'm debating fabbing my own traction bar or just peeling for an aftermarket. The car already has disk brakes all around. And I may steal the sparco seats from the mustang for this car. The bottom end of the b18 will be all fresh machined, new vtec pumps, golden eagle vtec conversion, all new gaskets and seals. I have a Holley hp unit I've been wondering if I could use, just haven't looked into it yet, anyone have experience with that? This is my first 4 banger and fwd project so input and suggestions are welcomed.

 

bump..
