Coupled with a Rowland M043 intake manifold.

I will eat B16's for lunch! And will cost half the price of a conversion..And this coming from a Carby haha.

Just give me some time fellas, I want to preety much have more power than a EK4, since the B16 came stock in them, they're around the 6-8k mark, so I will need to work with my D15B4 twin carb motor, produce better 1/4 mile times then a EK4, better power at the wheels then a EK4, and all of that for half the price of a EK4. Then we can finally close this case.

From different perspectives, its about 3-4k for getting a B16 intalled into a EG, with half of that money, I will try to make the car faster then a B16 EG with a twin carby!

tiksie 3-4 k is definitely over priced
you can get b16 series set ups for 1-2k these days do the install yourself
like you are installing your set up i assume
most b16a egs do 14.5 - 14.8 with i/e
or you can get eg b16a for 5-7 k these days so why waste you money doing a conversion for 3-4k
when most of the work has been done

only replied as you brought up the subject of d versus b

but tiksie it will be great if you do this itb mod to show another option instead of going turbo
cant wait for your results
make sure you post up no's times mate

Cheers Lan.

Yeah I will be getting it dynoed when I'm done with it all and hitting the strip!

I will be comparing it to the B16A2 EK4 as we never got the EG6 here in Aus (afaik)... Since we are talking about comparing AUDM motors ofcourse :)

Along with having fun with working on the D series, I just want to get better statistics then a B16 (keeping costs in mind, not performance parts).. If it was the latter, then ofcourse the B series has no limits to modification and will run a muck over the D series.

I just want to show people that you can get decent power out of D's aswell..Especially with carbs! With a small budget.

Since it would cost me 2K max for all B16 gear to convert into my EG, I will keep the benchmark at 1.5K for mods.

I won't go turbo with a carby motor, as much as you can, it's too much work needed imo. Keeping it all NA!

in for this! got a budget sheet or project timeline?

Interested to see your results. Great to see someone doing it instead of just running their mouth. Even if it ends up slower than an ek4, at least you have the sound of open webers to keep you happy

I will keep all results in my thread:
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...in-Carby-Build!

Currently got these coming from Italy:

Throttle response and power gained from webbers is amazing in itself! The sound is also amazing, wonder how it would sound on a d-series!

I used to have a V8 before so I'm a little familiar with tuning carbs, so hopefully it's not too hard!

Awesome.PLEASE post Vids Tiks!!

When I'm all done I will :)
