AbaZ, I did it...
 
When I was out in Calgary, I was thinking of your words of wisdom and finally bought a vtec head. ;D 1st gen b16. Dude said to cut an ear off my LS obd2 distributor and it'd fit the b16 head.

Anyone know where I can pick up the golden eagle dowels for cheap?

You can buy the dowells on ebay for like $10.


Oh, and how much was the head?

lol, ok good, now I"m gona go there and tell him to hook me up since I hooked him up with that sale?

Stan 01-03-2005 10:50 PM

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
haha..we'll see.. I got my buddy to get someone to tear the head apart and check it all out for me. We'll see how that goes. Next step is trying to put the sensors and purge crap from my obd2 LS onto the obd0 b16 intake manifold.

as much as I'm ghetto, ghetto isn't the best way to go. I got my dowels for $25 from turbohf. that $25 is worth having the head and block seal nicely.

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
We offer VTEC dowels from GE, but can't compete on price against these eBay units. Not sure of the quality, and the seller has "3" feedback....

VTEC Dowels on eBay, starting bid $9, free ship - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

Or genuine Golden Eagle Mfg Dowels from Tuner Toys for $19 shipped. (just can't beat the price on the eBay units.)

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
Thanks for the good words guys.

There were some completed auctions on eBay for the genuine GE dowels for $10 or so, but no active auctions. That is cheaper than I can buy them! Sure would like to get GE's opinion on how that happens....

haha this thread has really took a turn...... Hey Stan I'm sure if you talked to him longer he would have thrown in a valve cover :)

did you get that air freshener for free?

Stan 01-04-2005 08:16 AM

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
Nope, air freshener was a christmas gift. :D
I'll probably get my dowels from tuner toys.. as long as that shipping includes shipping to Canada.

Mary: I met Spenser when I was in Calgary, I would have kicked him in the nuts for you if it ment being closer to you. ;)

TunerToys 01-04-2005 08:25 AM

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
Sure, I'll ship to Canada for that amount, Global Priority to Canada vs. US, for under a pound, is only like .15 more....

Thanks for supporting us, even tho we were not the least expensive....

Ghetto? what is so ghetto about drilling 2 holes in the head (actually enlarging to holes) to the exact diameter of standard head dowls?

It's not rocket science, nor is it even slightly challenging. I beleive my write up was pretty easily explained on what to do.. go buy drill bit, drill, and your done. Or you can order some dowls for 25 bucks or whatever and wait. I've done about 4 ls/vtec heads for people and yes the "head and block seal nicely" Exactly why turbohf sold his stupid dowls.

support your local hard ware store, buy a drill bit, or support you local dowel pin distributor and buy dowel pins, it's up to you, but a good drill bit is going to cost just as much.

I've seen a standard sized drill bit was used, last time I checked honda engineers used the metric system. also I've seen it done using a hand drill, I've used a hand dril before and it wasn't very straight drilling, I'd like my dowel holes nice and straight. with the correct tools and equipment it's not ghetto, but ghetto can be achieved, and it won't be achieved by me on this one.

Re:AbaZ, I did it...
 
You'll use a coke can as charge piping, make your own OBD conversion harness(that was fucked up), chip your own ECU(that was probbaly fucked up too), but you won't drill the holes for the dowel? ??? That's like ------- an HIV patient without a condom after turning her down for a blowjob because she has aids. ???
