BLEW MY ---- UP!!! third time, ANSWER SOME Q's, SLEEVAGE FROM NOW ON!!
Alright, i cracked #1 and #2 cylinders on my b16 turbo eg 4 days ago after 5 months of being at 11 pounds t3/t04e turbo getting beat on every day, ectuned on Precision 1000's It was not that great of at tune, but it did justice and i had stable high 11 AFR's in boost. It was a great motor while it lasted. Car ran 13.4 @ 118 mph 2.5 60ft haha.
the setup was:
GSR head type R cams
b16 block 81mm bore
Je pistons 9:1
eagle H-beamers
ARP head studs
cometic hg
1
Anways I got a deal I couldn't pass up. I got my hands on a Dart Sleeved GSR block bored out to 84.5MM, Carillo Forged Rods, with 84.5mm 9:1 CP pistons, ARP main Studs and a GSR crank that needs micropolished for $1050. So I have a few questions
1. Can I use my old timing belt? I am going from b16 block to GSR block...
2. Can I reuse my ARP head studs? i don't remember if you size them up by the head or the block?
3. where the hell can i get an 84.5mm headgasket for a decent price?
4. I want to get the block, crank, rods, pistons checked out at a machine shop and make sure there are no problems with clearances and stuff... how much would this run me about?

I think I know why you broke.
1) No block hight is taller.
2)arp studs yes
3) Tunertoys has what you need.
4)Not to sure, do you have a wideband?

yeah that tune must have been horrible. Ive had cars running on stock blocks at 12psi for over 2 years now.
Every machine shop is differant. if you just want it checked and no work done probably not to much.

Dennis what up my cracker. Love my new tune. Got the waste gate situation fixed. Vibration cause some loosening of bolts. Go figure with a solid mount h series. Lol

ill get some pics as soon as I can, i dont have a camera, but my friend does, im going to go for dyno tuning this time around, with someone who can actually tune the motor better.... I still have much to learn... if the block is taller i should be running a GSR timing belt?

took the head off two days ago, #1 and #2 have a hairline crack at the very top of the cylinders, took a minute to find it. This was nowhere near the destruction like the first b series

Too much timing FTL. Next time take a lot more timing out in boost. Don't try and waste your time dumping way more fuel in than you need to try and mask a timing issue, people really need to start moving away from that. And invest in either a det-can setup or a knock light.
