The Crvtec is Dead....
First off I'd like to say that 2003 has been the worst year for me..
yes, happened last night street racing, I was racing a GSXr600 on the freeway. and all of a sudden she started smoking badly. I knew what happened... as soon as I saw all that smoke. I hoped for broken ring lands (pistons).. I couldnt sleep all night, so I went into work this morning at 6am, took the head off, and sure as ---- all the sleeves are cracked inbetween the cylinders. As I said before, B20 sleeves are weak, and they will break.
So whats next?... good question, first off I'm getting hammered tonite then sunday I'm getting a rent a car and going to vegas for 10 days. When I get back I'll figure something out. But as always, everytime I break something, I always come out with something bigger and better.

Re:The Crvtec is Dead....
well. lets see.. by judging jeff's pattern of engines im going to take a shot at whats next.
first engine, built zc (1.6l)
second engine, LS/Vtec (1.8l)
third engine, CRVtec (2.0l)
fourth motor? next step would be closed deck h22a right!? (2.2l)
that or sleeve the crvtec, anything other then the sleeves get toasted jeff?
