i want to put ctr pistons in my b18c1 block....but i dont know what rods to use...if i use the stock ctr rods...and a oem head gasket, would the pistons hit the valves?....also im going to run either ITR cam or skunk 2 stage 2....would that also make a difference in the clearence?

 

gsr rods in the gsr block- CR should be close to 12.3:1
Pistons should clear the valves with ITR cams, also with SKII cams.. clay if you're unsure.

 

so...thats a no on the ctr rods....and could that run on 91 and or 93 oct>?

 

if i were you, i would fun 93 if you can get it.

however i had that setup and ran 91 with tuning and had no problems

 

91 should be OK, just make sure you can get it tuned quickly.. Break the motor in on the dyno and tune it all in one fell swoop..

it may be ok, but timing would so retarded, that you would probably be just as quick with less compression and more timing. i say 93 octane

 

k...well im in luck...where i live i can get 93....and would this be a good daily driven car since im mostly gonna have oem honda parts in it?

 

also the head im goin to use is a b16a2

 

with the B16 head, you'll have about 12:1 compression, so you'll be OK with 91 OR 93

but why put 91 when u can put 93. less detonation
