OK guys ive got a 91 crx and im going to be doing a sohc build. im going to boost this motor and ive heard a some things that i should consider. im wanting to run a d16y8 ive heard from some ppl that i should build a d16y6 instead some ppl say run a d16y6 block with d16y8 head. i want vtec so im not doing the build non-vtec. so if some one can clear this up for me that would be great so i know which is the better way to boost a d16

 

id go with a d16z6. y series engines do not have good oiling. only one galley on the crank per rod and oil pumps dont flow as much. if your set on a y8 def make sure you port and shim it

 

we decided on the z6 engine

 

well me and dc2_boostking sat done for a few hrs and finally figure which is going to be the best route to go im going to be running a d16z6. thanks for help

boosted D16z6 on Hondata

 

Gentlemen think outside of the box.....B swap right out the gate.

 

^ yes but don't turbo it or you'll end up killing someone or yourself (not because of the speed but because something new breaks every week)

 

B series All day every Day LS vtec turbo 4000 Flawless miles Build it Right the first time

 

I just sold a entire fresh rebuilt d16z6 CHEAP!... Have plenty othe SOHC parts...check my thread(s)

 

originally we were doing the b16a swap but EVERYONE does that. we just want to do something different (including K-series) we're shooting for +400hp on a boosted D16z6 with hondata. we've got most of it planned out except the fuel injector size. any thoughts?
