Hi all right i am planning to rebuild the bottom end of my b18c6
i would like to get a little more capacity if possible so i have been considering how far it would be safe to bore the block out to.
first question is 82mm safe enough would a block guard be a worthwhile investment at this size or can i go further without risking the side-loading becoming too much for the walls??
the plan is to re-use the standard crank fit forged rods (haven't decided on type yet) and run forged high silicon pistons. to bring my compression ratio up to 13:1 or just below.
i plan to use cosworth pistons for this then oem main bearings and arp main studs and a spoon blueprinted oil pump
as far as the rods what type of rods suit high revving n/a applications? I-beam H-beam tapered or not? etc
i will be getting the whole rotating mass balanced to suit.
so the spec should be:
skunk2 high comp valves
skunk2 ti retainers and double valvesprings
toda valve guides
spoon 2 layer head gasket with light tolerance skim
bottom end bored out to 82mm (if this is deemed safe)
cosworth pistons to bring compression to around 13:1
forged rods to be decided on
supertech block guard if required
standard crank
oem shells
spoon oil pump
moroso baffled sump
externals are:
mugen 4-1 2.5"
j's racing decat
mugen twinloop 2.5"
standard intake manifold with port matched 70mm tb
hondata inlet manifold gaskets
closed type oil catch tank
with this kind of setup what sort of camshafts will i be able to use ? i want to keep driveability but plan on having the rev limit around about 9500rpm but also i want to make use of the increased static compression to allow for more overlap if i can make more power
any help on this would be very much appreciated
thanks
