:thumbsup:

I had a d15 dual carby in my Civic, I've had a B16 in it now for almost 2 years and I love it! But if I were to do it all again no way in hell would I chuck a b series motor in, spend the extra cash and go with the k series like Chi and EG5 said :thumbsup:

from where?

i found "JG gears for ZC $140.00 a pair"

US price btw, and definetly not shipped!

D - Series tends to be cheaper to build up, so if ur on a budget thats ur option...

I think SINISTR got his cam gears in a group buy on some other forum (dseries.org?)

yeh he got his damn cheap! dunno bout finding one that cheap! how much would it cost to get the cams installed? anybody hav any idea?

edit: by that i mean camshaft, not gears...

I gain pleasure in building and "better-ing" any motor. Weather it be B or D, if you get your hands dirty and gain HP out of your engine, then your a winner.

I get my D16y8 Camshaft soon, and will let you all know how it goes.

The never ending debate about what engine to build D vs B vs H vs K all I can say is that some engines cost more to build and will NEVER make the power of another better designed base motor.You will make good power with a built D series, and it will cost alot to get the head to flow like the other engines and that is where the power is made in a Honda engine.The parts for a D are getting very hard to get as most of the aftermarket industry is B-H-K based but good luck with your choice and I hope it gives you pleasure in building it as that is the fun part.And to the guys that carry on like school kids he asked about building a D not K is the new way pull your heads in and offer advice not some stupid remark.
