B16a- Stroker kit vs B18?

[TODA AU]

I stand corrected... just out of curiosity, how much would the above setups cost?

We can do that sort of thing, starting from $6500 - drive away
Incl new crank, rods & pistons, machining costs, machining costs, labour in & out, genuine gaskets, oils, fluids etc...

Realisticly this is similar money to what you'd pay for a B20 bottom end.
That is one with high compression cast pistons, rod bolts, head overhaul etc fitted & tuned with Hondata

geez,after all that work,wouldnt ya just sell the b16 block,buy some more deck height & do the same amount of work

It's not really much work at all.
On balance, if you've got an end goal, a stroker B16A can deliver equal results to a mild or heavily modified B18C.
Minus the expense of a new engine.

That's not to say swapping to a B18 or B20 can't be done at a reasonable price...
As clearly it can & the B20 swap is very effective.
The advantage of the B16 stroker is less hastle on inspection...
P-platers would understand this better...
