h23/vtec conversion?

[redleaf786]

Im thinkin of gettin a 4gen lude si non vtec and puttin a h22 vtec head on the h23 block, and buildin it all NA that way.... but would i be better off with the b16 or mabe ls/vtec and goin all NA?

stick with the h series motor. the b16 is a good motor, but not in a prelude. what's your budget like and how fast do you want to be?

btw, i moved this from the car comparisons forum.

i didnt meen a b series in the lude, i hav a 91 ls integra with a jdm b16 type r motor in it stashed away too, i just wanna kno wat i should work on and which to sell

i just wanna go all NA... ideally gettin low 13s mabe scratchin in on high 12s, i got my guys that will build head up for me they do all that shyt for fun, ill just raise the compression in the beast... dunno wat pistons to use though and wat cams would work best

[SiGNAL748]

high 12's!? good luck man lol

but if you're serious, keep us posted. i'd love to see how this project goes

It would be difficult to do without a turbocharger, I can say that much. I'd also like to see how it goes.

Do u really think its that out of reach, goin all NA cus i dunno there have been b16's all NA that have gotten there, i never said it was easy, but some strong cams and pistons and the h22 head on the h23 block will make a great combination... the h23 non-vtec blocks got a lot more torque then the h22 block, and ill get that high end from the vtec head, so with just that... i wouldnt be surprised if i ran high 13s

[SiGNAL748]

yes, high 13's is a much more realistic goal

Sorry, what car are running, in a civic, you can pull 12.9 to 12.6 with slicks Type S pistions, cams and tranny (also aftermarket axles) and slicks, (stock H22 with clutch, shaved flywheel, axles and slicks can and will run 12.9 all day long) also head blots on and you do not need a external oil line (I just built one)
