how many miles have you been putting on it and max rpm as far as breaking it in? trying to put X miles on it before she get's beaten?

if I remember correctly hotrex got that block for mad cheap. Besides that B16 perfect R/S ratio for revving to the moon ....

because the b18c block needed alot of work. it was in bad shape.

i got a b16a longblock and a set of new eagle rods for 400 dollars.

price was the main motivator. just like the 7.9:1 compression. i got a set of b18b 8.5:1 .10 over srps for 100 bucks.

ill tell you this though. no tq my ***. im pretty sure my heart stops when this thing hits vtec.

well, torque and torque at a reasonable rpm are two different things. again, not dissing your ----, but im sure you whip has nothing below 5k
