B16 Or B18 Build Stories

[XZILER8]

For all you guys who have built up a B16 or B18 (or anything for that matter)

Has anybody built up a motor that has exceeded their expectations?

Have any reccomendations for parts combinations?

tell me your story........

Thanks

WOW!


You mean to tell me that nobody has been impressed with how their engine turned out!

That's too bad.

I guess I don't know what you want from this. When I finished mine it didn't have more power than I expected. That is not saying that I am not impressed with it.

yea. i had higher expectations for my b16 than it gave...
i wanted to go faster than the frank lin eg2, but i didn't

i ran .3 slower than he did, but i had full interior and a terrible 60'

i wanted 175whp on a b16 w/ stock block.... didn't happen...

see where this is going!!???

go 1.8L or more!!

 

[B16]

i got close to 175whp, 171whp is enough. i'm pretty happy with my setup.
