I feel a bit silly for never learning this is all my years, but i don't know and would rather know what some of you more experienced guys think about this.

I just bought a b18a, and have recently seized the bottom end on my b16a swap, so i have a question about the ls/v that i'm gunna turn that mess into.

When i pull the p30's out of my b16 (given that they havn't made love to the valves) can i put them into a freshly honed b18a block, or does honing a block require O.S. pistons because of the material that is taken away with the hone job.

any help would be appreciated. They would get installed on the b18 rods and get new rings, but will they still seal in the bore really well after it has had a hone job if they are used pistons?

Sorry for the novel, but i hate one sentance posts.

 

they should i did a lsvtec for a customer but sirII pistons into the block his pistons were use'd all i did was had him buy some new rings and the car is running really well no compression lost or anything..
