Block Posting
 
Has anyone actually done the block posting that is talked about on the site here?? Does it shorten engine life, does it compromise engine strnghth? I'm just curious cause i have a 91 CRX and i would like to swap in a B18 and turbo the engine and if the block posting works then that would be great so if anyone has any info please send me a reply thanks.

It compromises engine strength. Stock sleeves swell, posts act more like pins under boost.

Since stock B18 sleeves have been taken to 650 whp, how much power are you planning on making that you are worried about block strength?? :o
