Question Cant Decide- 1.8 - Bore out and resleeve to a 2.0 or just Hone
Well i have 2 choices with my B18c BLock
Either Do minimal boring and honing keeping it a 1.8
or for about $400 more I can get it Resleeved.. and bored out to a 2.0.
Not really sure what to do. Also getting a complete port and polish and 5 angle valve job.. should be running again in about 2weeks I hope

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Chris

If you have the money to sleeve it with IRON sleeves, do it. If not, a simple overbore will do. It all boils down to what you want to get out of your motor.

Sleeves are only useful if they're STRONGER then stock. From how he described it, he's resleeving it with stock sleeves.

No i believe they will be aftermarket/stronger sleeves
Not stock ones... he has been building some nascars, so i would figure he would go stronger

ok well the sleeves would not be a bad idea and would make it easier but it can be done with out the sleeves... just make sure to run some sick cams and and high compression pistons (i like CTR)...

ctr pistons wouldn't raise the compression enough for 200whp. Look into Endyn Wiseco rollerwaves, prolly 12:1, with skunk stage 2, or Toda spec B.
Hondata would be a definate plus with 310+cc injectors. Shave the head slightly, get a stronger headgasket... etc.
