Dont listen to all the K-series guys, sure k-series is an awsome conversions for all the obvious reasons (easier power productions, better power delivery, better gearbox, more modern) but everyone is forgetting how raw the B-series is. I drive a mildly built B-series (Head work only) and its a dream to drive, ill be upgrading to much higher compression bottom end soon. IMO, to produce that kind of power from a B-series you must get the turbo option out of your head and concentrate on building the motor up N/A. If youve got 13k to spend go for ITBs, E85 fuel, good cams (TODA, SKUNK etc), do your research on headers, full 2.5in mandrel bent exhaust, a good aftermarket ecu and for god sakes a good tune, GET A GOOD TUNE!!!! As for the bottom end, id run 11.5-12:1 forgies, a nice set of strong and light conrods (do your research) and for the crank, im sure the stock one will be fine, and at the end of it all, get the whole rotatting assembly balanced
Hope that helps

Jccck - LOL Not this clown again your comparisons are such a joke im not even going to bother.. Your engine build seems to keep increasing power output day by day, good luck
in your e-wang stat goals of 2011.
his goal is a mid 12 second pass, ive yet to see a n/a itr b series in australia reach that goal, however there are plenty k swaps out doing this
with much ease........
for example
but at the end of the day no one is holding a gun to his head saying go k series. All advice coming from experienced guys like the byp brothers, who have been there
and done pretty much everything

No, Jccck, the guy who posted a couple posts back

All that work and effort yet won't perform as well as a family motor k24 .
Nothing against B series, go ahead and do it. But once its completed the money/power ratio wont be worth it then you'll end up K series.
K24 swaps can be had for as little as 10k.

8.5k for everything minus labour! Has proven to make 135kw atw

I completely agree with you, once i have the funds to do it properly ill be going K series myself. Im just trying to help this guy out as he wants a built B series not a K series

There has been an N/A B series in Oz with a 12.3sec pass. Not as easy as working up a K, but that's where the fun is!

Fack thinking power. Focus on gearing, weight and setup. A 134kw K series could run a 12 with factory 6spd. 134kw B series with a 5spd probably won't.
Are your goals power or times? While they are related, they aren't the same.
Econo Box pimping ain't easy.

Also i guess if his aims are to use the car as a street/track car or a street/drag car or only street, if he wants a street/track car then power means nothing without control
