A NA B16 is worthless.

2.0+ liters if you insist on high dollar low yield NA faggotry. Rob's old bottom end, 85.5X92mm, Carillo A-beams and Eagle crank, can be had for $2200 or you might talk the guy down a bit, needs ringed.

That's pretty much how you have to spend your money if you want a NA Honduh that's faster than a stock D16 with a T3...

lol... see this is how much a noob I am,. none of that made sense to me except B16 = crap. I just want a good performing engine that isn't going to run me like 4k or more...

Sounds like fun, though I'll have to do alot of reading I guess.. I know nothing about turbo at all. Can a D16a6 really reach power levels of the b series? I didn't think that was really possible.

Last night the same SOHC ZC with bolt-ons I mentioned earlier kept even with a GSR swapped 93 hatch until 4th gear. I don't know what tranny combo he was running, but ricky racer nearly ---- his pants when the hood was popped for him after he didn't believe it was a stock SOHC engine.

d16a6 is a fun motor, if your looking for straight line speed then do the boosted LS but if you want a car that handles well and is fast, stick with an a6 or if vtec means that much a z6 with mild modifications and spend your money on other suspension work. i have a blast with my a6 and have spent money on suspension stuff(which is more rewarding to how i drive), a big motor has a lot of power but you add like a hundred pounds to the front of your car, thas just my 2 cents.
