Re:Mini-Me: block choice
 
well as of right now i have my contact down in miami following up on two motors one is a d16z6 complete engine and hopefully i can pick it up for 300, and the other is some other d16 the guy didnt specify. But if they still have them i will jump on it instead of paying 225 for just a rebuild head and im

i understand what your saying and hell yea that soudns like a cool vid, i was more of just saying that the really horrible r/s ratios of a long stroke short rod d17 though would be a torque monster would not be rev happy, at least not for very long, which i think is what most honda owners like, or maybe thats just me.

anyhow back on topic again, if you dont have a compression tester or someone to borrow one from, i believe you can borrow one from autozone

I like the d15 bottom ends just for the fact of the rod to stroke ratio is nicer than a d16...combined with a z6 or y8 head, you can spin those suckers up there ;D
