after doing my b7/z6 mini me conversion i heard that there is a oil ristictor jet that has to be removed from the b7 block, is this true??

i have a metel head gasket.
can i reuse it??

 

B7 doesnt have a VTEC oil jet..... the oil jet its on the VTEC head......
and no u cant reuse the headgasket..... once they compress and provide seal they cant be reused......

 

the oil restriction jet in in the block if i am correct, and in order for vtec to activate, you must remove it. IMO, dont do a mini me, you end up with big holes in your block if you are running stock internals, and i have pictures to prove it

 

The A6,B2 block is plenty strong, so Mini-me's are mostly pretty solid. It's just from guys revving to 8k, thinking they're indestructible. Well, they're just like any other engine. Abuse em and they'll blow.
