im thinking of buying the block and slaping my stock head on there
and cranking up the boost
is this a fair price?

that`s a bad *** block. Just price the components and labor and you`ll findout it`s pretty fair. Also. consider sleeving to too.

at least sleeve it

1.6 will get old.

 

1.8 or go home, right? haha

 

you think the 1.6 will get old with 12 pounds of boost????

No, but I don`t think your stock sleeves will like it too long. Sleeving and going 1.8 is the biggest bang for the buck you`ll get.

Ryan

 

you're building a motor , for a minor difference in price you can have a 1.8 , why you would even consider not sleeving is beyond me.

do what you want......

 

so its worth the extra $725 to sleeve it?

i dont plan on keeping this car any longer than 2 years
so i thought sleeving it would just be overkill
however i will do a search and look into sleeving her

its a street car right now (i will definatly race her a bit when my tubo is all ready)
im not concerned about having the fastest civic
i want it to be fun and reliable

Im a little scared boosting on my stock internals
so to be safe i was gonna do some pistions and rods
then i saw this block with all these goodies for 2100
it caught my eye i just wanted some opinions
