MY B18 Project

[C91BLX7]

No point. So many great motors that bolt in. No need for wimpy torqueless civic/teg engines.

where do you get that a b18 will pull a cb7 ????????

B18A1

130 bhp (97 kW) @ 6000 rpm & 121 ft·lbf (164 N·m) @ 5000 rpm
140 bhp (100 kW) @ 6300 rpm & 126 ft·lbf (171 N·m) @ 5000 rpm

F18A1

118 bhp @ 6000 rpm, 14.6 kg m @ 4000 rpm (PGM-carb)

F22A1

125 hp (93 kW) @ 5200 rpm, 137 ft·lbf (186 N m) @ 4000 rpm

It will pull the Accord but not as good as a regular F22A in stock form as it would be a downfall, however since he plans on really beefing it up , the end results will be up to him.

Overall , I'd still go H22A and boost it or N/A build or just leave it stock. Let the small engine belong to small cars and the big engines to big cars.

the b18

I only have the b18 cause it was practically free so yea but i want something that is completely shit so i can build it up whether it going to be a h22 or fseries i want vtech and i want less work the people i know the swaps they did with the h22 they dont even have power steering or there vtech dont work so yea i need good advice

Ok here

A couple of advice to you is:

Go H22A & do some research.

Vtec

h22

where can i get a descent price on a h22

Hey man, good luck with the build & swap! Do whatever you want to do, and don't let anyone tell you to do it their way.

These guys, from what I can tell, are trying to advise you that the H22A would be a far better motor, but you got that B18 for $30? That's a steal!

If it were me, I'd build that B18 up and sell it to someone with a Civic or Teggy for a nice profit - then, use the money you get to buy an H22A and build that up for the cb7

around 1500-3000 with tranny

H22 swap is cake. It drops right in, you add three wires, get the proper ECU, boom, you're done.

B18 swap, you are going to need custom mounts, custom axles, cut out the floor pan to fit shifter rods (B series trannies use RODS not cables, like F and H series), different radiator, etc. All kinds of different shit. There is NO point to put it in a CB7. No body has done it yet because it's retarded to do so. ANY motor can be mean when boosted. Hell, the F series that comes stock does pretty damn well boosted, and it's cheap to build. Pistons/rods, and you can run 400hp all damn day, with a proper tune, fuel system (all you need are a better fuel pump and injectors), and a proper catch can/crank case ventilation system.

Instead of wasting money on putting B-series in a CB7, invest the money in building an F22A block and a turbo kit to put on it, you'll be making more power and torque, all for a lot less than you would with a B-series.

Also, what is so important about having "VTEC?" You'll have more than enough power with boost. VTEC is overrated.

There is your good advice. You would be wise to heed it.

Probably in the same way people thing dohc cars are always > sohc cars too.

what would be the point in that its a waste of time to build the b18...........its not that someone is trying to tell him what to do......but think about it............not saying that the b18 is a bad motor cause its not, im saying that its a waste of time an money cause it aint gonna move the boats we drive, people swap h22s in cb7s for a reason

[1990Ex]

the stock motor in your car if built/tuned right can be stronger than both the motors listed above
