$2500 is the cost to build just the motor?
This is what my build up consisted of...
D16Y8 block $100
D16Y8 crank $75
Hot tank, bore/hone, and polish crank $165
SRP Pistons and Eagle Rods with ARP bolts $725
ACL Bearings $103
ARP Head Studs $83
Golden Eagle Block Guard $90
New OEM Gaskets $174
New NAPA Timing Belt $44
New NAPA Water Pump $45
Total $1604

and it will hold more boost than a stock B Series can reliably.

now that i disagree with. I have seen some fast ass sohc cars. Now i understand B series are much more capable but, i do not really wanna do a swap all these parts can be taken off of my car and i can sell a stock ek. I do not have the room to store a b18 right now if i did it would be going in my car. But you saying sohc are a waste of time is like someone with a v8 saying that 4 cylinders are a waste of time.

You can't back up any of your statements. You just make uneducated, unsupported, worthless comments. I agree with the fact that B Series in the LONG run have more potential. I have seen dynos of 750whp B18C's. For the average racer, street car especially, the D series is capable of being built cheaply for FAR MORE power than needed.

Ok n00b ya don't know me... I have built soch motors for about 4years and have only recently started to build my b-series and I have come to the conclusion after years of tuning and building and thousands of dollars spent that d-series motors are a waste of time and money. thats my opinion based on mine and many others experiences with honda motors in the past four years if you don't like my opinions don't read them that simple.

Any all motor n/a motor is going to be more reliable than any boosted motor unless the car is boosted stock such as....sti, evo, gs-t.......ETC bottom line I wouldnt mind doing a sohc turbo your going to wax coupes with swaps if they are stock but with a few bolt ons and a good drive compared to a boosted coupe with 7-10psi its going to b pretty even race
