I got the first and most important part for my all motor build. A b17a crank from slofu (great seller). Enough BS, here it is.

 

How much was it? expensive wasnt it

 

275$ shipped. I think thats fair.

 

Looks like a b16 Crank to me, you got ripped!!!!!!!!

haha JK

 

I'm jealous...


Find me one, too, eh?

 

Find yourself three more, And you can make a mail box post with them, Like I did...

All jokes aside, Great find. Not doing too much there on your desk though, Get crackin B!

im friends w/ this fool, he tells me he bought this crank, tells me he has it, but the first time i see it is on the damn internet....

now the rest of the motor parts needs to be bought..

 

what type of setup will be using the b17 crank in? i've got my b17a disassembled completely and sitting in my shed right now.

 

its going in a b16 block. i dont know if rjay wants me blabbing about his engine. he made a couple of threads about it before.

 

Looks similar to the build i was gonna do. B16 block with b17 crank. Crower rods, and ctr pistons. And ctr valve train. Crazy good rod/stroke ratio. Keep us posted!

you can see that both ends of the crank, have a pair of counterweights, and not just 1 on each side. B17A it is.

anyone want to buy one? see my EF parts sig.

were the crower rods the only ones you could find??? seems like some would make cheaper rods...or were looking at custom b16 rods/pistons..

 

might as well tell you guys the plans now.
B17 crank
b16 block and head
sleeved to 85mm (can't decide on company)
b16a 5.290" rods (probably gonna be eagle)
arias pistons with wrist pins raised .082"
as for the rest of the engine i've got a lot of deciding and research to do. I know i want around 11.1-11.7 compression and i'm gonna match the combustion chamber to the bore and i'm gonna run hondata, but i'm trying to decide if i should convert to obd-1 or keep obd-0.
I wanna see 205whp for sure.

 

Why is the B17 crank so great? Do you get more displacement from it or something? Is it forged?

 

cuz it helps provide the best rod-stroke ratio you can find on a honda

Does hondata Still have issues with obd-0 ?
Did they come out with a program that works now on these years?

 

hondata has a systems for obd0 ecus. It's called stage 1/2/3 instead of s100 etc.

 

It's best because it is a great compromise... It's between the B16a's short stroke and the LS or GSR/ITR's longer strokes, LS being the longest by a hair.

The B17 crank with a 84mm bore nets about a 1.9L motor, and keeps a decent rod stroke ratio, unlike the b18 cranks.

B16 still has a better rod/stroke ratio, but the b17 is a good compromise.

Yes i was told from multiple people that crower is the only company that makes rods for the b17 crank. Wich isnt all bad, because they are bad *** rods A lil bit pricey tho
