mate, mines a stock motor, but i've run almost identical bits as you have.
Only think i wanna ask is how you run the direct coils?
I've been considering getting rid of my distributor and running direct coils but dunno how to. Would you share the knowledge?

PM me if your able to thanks!

the way that i've done it i still use the distributors pickups as the crank and cam angle sensors, but i made a new aluminium cap that replaces the plastic honda distributor cap and that mounts 4 ls2 coils with built in ignitors, then you need an ecu that has four ignition outputs as opposed to the honda single output. what ecu are you running?

if you're running a stock motor there isn't any real reason to go to direct coils as the block will limit your power well before the ignition system does.

cheers bruce.

I know what your saying. But im saying im surprised that his total packed is mostly OEM form yet producing 10sec 1/4s. unreal stuff

EG
It amazes me that a standard head would let the engine make that sort of power and that standard drive shafts will take that sort of punishment with slicks and all the power !

it's been proven time and again that a stock b18c head can make ALOT more power than what i'm making, as for the drivetrain i honestly thought that i would've broken something since i put the twin plate clutch in as it is very brutal. the entire drivetrain has done over 200,000kms and at a guess close to 300 1/4 mile passes without a single breakage.
i am an engineer so i do have a bit of mechanical sympathy and i always preload the drivetrain prior to the burnout and launch.

is this car regoed in australia?

is this car regoed in australia?

it's here on an "overseas vehicle permit" which allows me to use it as a daily vehicle in australia on the new zealand rego, which is why it still runs the new zealand plates.

I'll drag ya!

Any engine bay pics man?

cool thanks for that. Not sure if my PFC can run 4 direct coils.
I though you'd somehow managed to get rid of the dizzy altogether

you can get rid of the distributor completly but you then have to mount crank angle sensors and such anyway. AEM make a unit that replaces the distributor and works solely as a angle sensor.

it would pay to check but i'm pretty sure that the power fc only has a single ignition output, you need at least 2 outputs then you could do it as wasted spark.

hey man, i am building my B at the moment and just wondering if there was a reason that you swaped the motor and did a sleeved block? you didnt crack one? and who did your block and machining ?
Thanks and watching it at jambo was unreal!!! PM me if you can

i was making just over 300kw@wheels on the standard block and i wanted more power, i didn't feel comfortable pushing it anymore than that so i had a few spare blocks so we sleeved one, i kept the original motor as a spare until i got offered very good money for it so i sold it, it is now in a supercharged dc2 in nz still going strong.

the sleeved block (including the machining of the block and installation of the sleeves) was all done by my brother who is an engine reconditioner in nz!

cheers bruce

wow its not often you hear people say after 300ATW you wanted more
that was my concern that the stock sleeves wouldnt handle around 300.

how much were the darton sleeves if you dont mind me asking? its a shame your brother is over in NZ

i got them in from the states, think they were about $550us! sleeving a honda block isn't rocket science like everybody seems to make out, my block was the first one we done and we've since done another 2 b's and a k series block for other people. i've got 3 blocks that i brought over with me that i have to machine for sleeves when i get time at work. any competent machinst with a machining center can machine the block for sleeves, and it's just common sense as far as fitting the sleeves go. i can't understand why all the "experts" in australia say that you should only get a sleeved block done in the states.

[lookingforboost]

I know what you mean no one here wants to do it one place said they would ship it away to have it done but it would be about 2500-3000 to have the sleeves fitted!

is there anyway you can wreck the block if i send it somewhere and they dont know what they are doing?
