i have a g2 with a jdm b16 with 65 shot of zex i did a 13.9 with 2.1 60 foot i am going to take the motor apart and put in ctr pistons 11 1/2 to 1 total seal rings and block guard also i am doing arp head studs 3 angle valve job springs and retaners i was wondering what kind of shot would be safe?

 

100 hahhahha

 

honestly, i'd stay w/ a 50 dry or a 65 wet. maybe go as high as a 75 wet. anything higher than that might run a little hot depending on your fuel tuning. the parts will take 100 in a dual nozzle (dual stage) setup that shoots wet.

 

honestly, id say this is an all motor forum. u should pay attention to what forum ur in b4 posting.

i was going to say something, but i dont have enough seniority around these parts for my words to mean anything

 

its not about seniority young grasshopper, its about learning. theres so much info out there thats posted constantly almost daily its amazing. almost every subject has been covered 1000s of times.

i have always wondered why so many honda people have problems getting their total seals to seat properly. those who actually do seem to love them.


perhaps no one is using the recommended break-in film in their bores....

 

actually I did try that to and it didn't help i went thru two sets until i gave up and bought some $50 rings from the machine shop and problem solved

 

Youre raising your compression so I wouldnt go any higher than youre already at.

 

hmm that is disappointing to hear..i have never used them on a honda.. but on aircooled vw/porsche motors i have personally seen them perform quite well...

i wonder what they are doing wrong on their honda rings ... or perhaps it is simply high RPM causing them to flutter.. which i would think is the weakness of a gapless ring... perhaps the mass of a typical honda size ring is not sufficient to allow for a gapless design at the RPMs a built honda engine typically turns...

sad..because it is an interesting design when it actually works..

what happened when you used them?

They were on a freshly re-built b18, the car would not stop smoking it was bad
