I am new to the Honda world former Mustang guy gone Turbo 4cl in the hunt for a B18c capable of holdin some good hp like 450+whp and was wonderin if anyone has bought a shortblock from a reputable builder and had any luck? I live in S.E. Texas and dont mind paying shipping from anywhere in US just really don't now where too look.

if your looking for one that is done, ready to go, call Dave at http://www.dh-racing.com
tell him Joe from On Demand sent you

does all my shortblocks for me...I've had good luck with them...my only issue is they need a good bath when you get them in

also does headwork too, but so far I've just grabbed a few shortblocks

you'll never get through to him calling...he never answers the phone...he runs a one man show...sort of like me...running around 500 different places any given second...best bet is to email him through the site...

for what your looking for, your looking to spend between 3500-and 6000 (what you want in the block and whether you get a cyl head or not)

oh btw, you can also try civicgos9s@aol.com...that is the email I contact him through, not sure if it is on his site, but tell him I sent you over, he should take good care of you

Ignore this guy, do NOT order anything from Dave Hickman racing, the guy is a notorious crook, do a search here on Honda-Tech and you'll see what I mean. Honestly, I'd check with ERL Performance, Golden Eagle, Benson, to name a few, all reputable builders.

Good luck.
