I'm not dumping on the other choices, because I would love a B18c1 myself! But here is the kit I mentioned in my first post:

Seriously, you can't ask for anything more! Definately makes your life easier. Finding a good b16 head (I'm pretty sure this is the ideal head to use when doing this conversion) shouldn't be too hard either.
Especially if you have the space and garage to do this. Chances are this route might end up being quite a bit cheaper than buying a whole new motor. Do a search on www.honda-tech.com to read up on it if you're interested. |
alright thanks for the help man. that probly would be a good route to go, seeing as the b18b engine i have now is working just fine but it lacks the power of the vtec and like i stated i just need to deal with the 2 minor oil leaks, it would save me lots of money. ill have to look up to find what is the best head!
