b18c5 $8000 supply and fitted from good performance in yenora. (the owner once workd for hannys)
*I dont see how the headstuds, rod bolts is going to make ur bottom end stronger, expecially since all the crvtecs that i know of in RL suffer from cracked sleeves and hair line cracks in the block, of which u didnt even mention*
Let me ask you one question: is the b20 block designed to be a high revving bottom end? The answer itself should give you an idea why reinforcement is necessary. Anyway in all cases it is better to overbuild as a way of insurance. These are VTEC heads on non VTEC bottom ends were talking about right! The craked sleeves are a child of poor tuning with higher than stock c/r, my bad for missing that point. Some people will argue the opposite though, so its up to alan to choose what he would prefer to do in this situation.
*Nothing less than a standalone? tell me u read that too? I got a friend who runs a unichip on his crvtec conversion, it works fine. Its only a piggy back, so i dont know where u got that from either.*
You can't go anywhere with a chipped ecu if your aiming more hp, because then you gotta bump up the fuel. Hondata has datalogging, WideBand Tuning, three stage rev limiter for drag launch, full throttle shift, the list is endless.
If I could have it my way and had the cash I would get Motec, however if you are comparing a chipped ecu to Hondata, well then you are comparing apples to oranges.
*Dont believe everything u read man, i hope i dont offend u, but theres a big difference between reading what is said over the net, as opposed to seeing RL results and consequences.*
no offence taken mate! we're all here to learn and your points are valid and much appreciated by me and everyne here I reckon.
*Aight back to my hole*
me 2 :|
Yes the sleeve's are the weakest point of the CRV block but if it is tuned correctly they are fine I would not want to push them anymore than ALLMTR did as his combo ran purfect and his ET's and MPH showed that and I have only seen 1 other non-turbo VTEC engine make more power than ALLMTR's B20 made and that was a 84mm bored B18C race engine.

Damn Dave - you beat me to it - and before people start talking about being the first to drop a K20 in - ALLMTR is dropping a K24 into a '84 hatch so you'r a bit behind in terms of "firsts" :P
ALLMTR will be the first in this country to do a Kseries conversion and I can not wait till the little red rocket hits the track again.
Whoops - my post was aimed at all the "first" posts, not you Dave - sorry if it came out that way :)
Im willing to take a bet that his car isnt driven daily :P Cos the daily driven ones that ive seen crack at the sleeves and have hair line cracks in the block! But i guess every motor is different?Quote:

And the only other thing is a driver will just jump in and rev his engine cold but that will wreck just about any engine.

Your wager is accepted. Up until yesterday ALLMTR was my only car. How much were we betting anyway.........Quote:

oh btw Dyno dave, i know that u said poor tuning owns ur car, well i agree it does. But in the above post u said that u didnt allow tinker to run, does that mean run on the dyno at all? or what?
cos tinker has dyno numbers for the day.
pornstar: quit while you are behind :? Better to accept the facts graciously :) ALLMTR's car is a daily driver - quite a few of us have seen it there. I've followed US CRVTECS and I was as sceptial of the build as you - but 2 years on and the 3 that I know of are still running strong with no issues - in ED hatches that run as daily-drivers and strip monsters.
