What kind of application are you running, all motor or forced induction?

If you have money just send your block to get it resleeved to an 84mm bore with JE pistons and Crower rods.

im going too run N/A for the most part, but hope too add a 2 stage set up on it later. This is sorta a budget build and was wondering what bearings, rings and seals were the best too use. Thanks

Well dude man, think of a plan first, and stick with it(unless you're sure you want to change). If you want turbo(I'm assuming that stage 2 is turbo?) then by the internals now for the block preperation.

if your going with a budget build, then dont even build a motor, it will be cheaper just to buy a B18A from a junkyard for five bills and go with that.

EDIT - but as for bearings, OEM honda, and rings, use the same brand of ring that you do piston. budget all motor build? Use b16 pistons.

The thing with the motor is that i got a 90 integra ls for 30 bucks. The only thing is that the motor needs a crank. I got the crank, and was wondering what was the best stuff too put in it. Thanks
