rear bumper has beadings, that's why the front got some aswell... been how long and no cracks... the thing with fibreglass/plastic merge is the 5p's (proper preparation prevents poor performance) but i just cracked a sleeve, so i'm putting the block on the cnc machine tomorrow for some 7mm...

never ever let anyone touch your vtec's rocker arms, it should be considered a felony and should be punishable by death! i replaced my rocker arms and vtec kicks in like a b!tch, harder than ever! so in conclusion, the vtec activation piston inside the rocker arm MUST be aligned for vtec to...

i wish we had ek9's in SA

hi all got my b16a head back today and noticed that the rockers have been milled where the cam actually rides to open the valves, vtec is hardly noticeable after everything was assembled and the car driven, oil pressure is spot on and the solenoid activates, does the milling of the rocker...

i checked the clearances while the head was off, the pistons in question are wiseco 10.9:1 pistons on eagle H-beam's, as far as i know their valve reliefs are big enough

hi all i'm in the process of building a b20 vtec and after the head came back from the engineering shop i'm having difficulty with the valve clearances. the head had damage to cyl #4, new valves were installed, after this was done i cannot get any clearance on cyl #1, the head was sent in...
