b18b 170 K
i can see a scratch on the piston top.. how can i find out if the piston needs to be replaced...it runs like **** now.... im wondering if i can fix/replace the head...or if i should/need to build the bottom end too.? or if i should start shopping for a new motor...(im poor)
this is the second time my timing belt has broken...
the first time i was lucky and the belt was replaced...(but not the water pump)
then the pump siezed and snap....smack bend..im fu cked
i was hoping to be able to upgrade my valve train and port my head.. and upgrade but after replacing the belt and finding out i had a LARGE problem
ive been in limbo....
of course everyone and there cousin has been like "slap" a vtec head on it YO! it would be faster than a gsr...
IS THERE A WAY TO BIULD A RELIABLE LS VTEC?
without building the bottom end
so thats turned out to be a bit of a compund question...but i have a compund problem .....guide me hondatech junkies and tech alike
