b18c engine rebuilt costs!

[L a z y b O Y]

hello just wondering roughly how much is it to rebuild a b18c with port n polish etc ... i need rough estimates as i might consider rebuilding =]

and suggestions of aftermarket camshalfts, valves etc

Its hard to say.

We really need to know what you want to do with the rebuild. Like do you want an OEM rebuild or rebuild it with aftermarket products>

recently was wit a mate working on rebuilding sum random engine wit port polish n full engine balancing cost d bloke in d 1600 mark but it also depends on how complicated d engine is

[L a z y b O Y]

ahhh alright im looking at getting some Toda spec C Camshafts, Toda Cam gears, Toda Dual Valvesprings , Titanium retainers and Stainless Steel Valves.
(1600 for the toda parts used )

or any other brands of aftermarket parts...

okay if i say i had a budget of 2k what i would be able to get?

so u wanted the parts put in and rebuilt at d same time man dats a big job dude d majority ull b payN 4 is labour lol id say ur looking at mayb 800-900 for labour

after all that u might need to rebuild the bottom end with stronger pistons etc
correct me if im wrong but with those cams etc u should be able to rev ur engine higher in the rpm, the stock bottom end might not be able to take it
plus factor in another 1k+ for ecu and tuning,
also u will probly need better brakes, sussy, engine mounts(recomended), new HD clutch to take the extra power, etc

damn there goes my projected budget for a engine rebuilt! anymore suggestions for low budgeters like me ? for example b16 complete head or something ?

So 2G on top of the 1600 already allocated for head.
Depends on how far you want to go? Define rebuild?
Do you want to do the bottom end? If so you'll need to allocate a whole lot more money.
I'd do Intake manifold, TB, good exhaust and Hondata with tuning will probably take you over the 2K mark, but coupled with the above parts should make for some decent power gains, but I'd go spec B cams.
There are many other threads of similar nature and it all comes down to money. Modifying NA hondas aint cheap.

But you lose the whole point of the Honda being the NA king.
