D15B7 vs D16Z6 cost effective build Q?
Heres what I'm thinking about. I'm going to be doing a TT rod + vitara piston build so I can up the power A LOT. I have two options that I'm looking at right now:
1) Rebuild D15B7 (300k miles) that I have sitting around
2) Do above ^^^ but my current Z6 head on the D15 bottom end
3) Source out a D16Z6 and then have it rebuilt
In your honest opinions what would be my best bet at making 300hp? Could I attain 300hp on a D15B7 TT vitara setup?
Currently running D16Z6 (soon to be boosted 3psi @ first with MBC to up to 7psi when I'm comfortable)

I still say it's worthless building a d15, but whatever floats your boat.

Yeah rods for a d15b7 are hard to come by. BUT
I just had the idea....
What about B16A rods? it appears they are only .015" longer than D15b7 rods.... I'm going to play around with the compression calculator... I could be on to something.
