Only reason I suggest this is because finding a good, low km B18c1 is still going to be expensive. Though you might be able to score a nice JDM motor. If you do go this route, be patient and wait for a good motor. Even if it means spending a few more bucks. Forget the B16!
I also got my motor from Garage 5, they're a good place to start, as well as some of the sponsers.  |
ya i think i would go with b18c1 after all. no the motor in my car isnt blown but it has a minor head gasket and oil pan leak and it can only get worse, also I am determined to have a vtec motor. I was thinking of doing a vtec conversion a while ago but was told that its much more than just throwing a new head on it, theres many other things that need replacing along with it.
but I would be up for a rebuild of my motor, got a nice big garage and plenty of time.
also, anyone know what parts do need to be changed to adapt to the vtec head? THANKS!!
