so which oil pick up would be used? and are you able to use B16/B18 aftermarket/OEM oil sump?

very nice. thanks for quick answer.
My point exactly bro.
If you pay more than $500 then you've been jibbed. And if you've paid $800-1000 then sure, it's not like that's where the most of the build money is going to go, but that wasted $300-500 could get you a new CAI or a dyno tune.
In VIC it's around $600-1000 for an engineering cert (my mate is doing one right now for his B18CR in ED9) but this depends on whether or not you need to do extra work to satisfy their sadistic need for perfection/registration at VicRoads...
Interesting thread to say the least, but as for b20 second hand prices, if the engine is to be stripped and fully rebuilt, then the condition of the engine you would be starting with wouldnt be of much concern, as for engines with low km's that may just have the pistons notched or go back into a crv for a replacment, thats where a engine would and should be a higher price.
But as has been said, how many 150+ dyno's are on here, not many, and how many people ( i know a fair few now ) have attempted to strap one together with what they would consider a decent parts list and fallen well short, as for 160+ i believe my engine is the only B series on here with a dyno sheet to back it up, not to say they might not be out there, but they are very few and far between.
N/A B-Series, you mean?
Dyno numbers are one thing and running the times is another. Anyone can make xxx amount on the dyno. There is too many variables when it comes to dyno number. Our B20vtec could make easily over the 160kw mark if we strap on street tyres and reduce the camber from-ve 3.5 deg. But to simulate the load on the engine, we opted to dyno using semi slicks
I could agree more with you Benny but it was strapped in using a much less favorable ramp rate or mode then some use ;) , was spinning 17inch wheels and tyres. 2.5 deg, on pump fuel with a cat fitted and a 38 degree day with a 3 hour tune, not bad considering.
The point i was trying to make was alot out there dont make the 150kw mark at all and they are easier said then done and often come at a cost much higher then some claim it can be done for, just look at your asking price for your engine considering the parts included, not so budget is it.
Leo whens your new engine going to be ready?.
In terms of intake manifold vs ITB's which makes the most torque and kw reading?.
itbs make better torque afaik
id like to ask about exhaust system.
let say if i do b18c type r stock head internal with stock b20.
just plan to make 2.5inch b pipe. will it result in power lose if i go without resonator and without catalitic? just header go straight pipe to the muffler? or do i need to run resonator to avoid top end power lose?
apart from being illegal on public roads, it will be fine...
resonators are simply to change the noise, nothing to do with power AFAIK...
