So you get a bottom end block what to do?

[Maple50175]

So yeah I may get this bottom end of a d17 block (no head) from this kid for 100 bucks.

At some point I want to BOOST so I was thinking of getting it and building it.

IF i do get the block what's the next step in building it? (bottom end)

Help me out. I was boost with the dezod turbo kit by the late summer and push 300HP safely. I'm still confused with the piston sides/rods/ bearing to buy. It's all confusing to me over the last week I have been reading about internals and i'm super confused. I plan on getting the EX head for 100$ from some kid as well.

I was reading up on honda tech and this is what I read:

Weisco custom pistons 9:1 76mm bore.
Piston part # XT- 519P76 Wiseco 76mm 9:01 compression about $450.00

CR- BR3740B Crower Billet Honda 1.7 $600.00

Sleeves part #DS-300-010 Darton flanged sleeve from a D16- 75mm bore to 76mm to fit my oversized pistons. $210 a set of 4

block bored to fit the sleeves about 78mm and the crank shaft line honed. resurface top of block

ARP heat studs 100$

head P&P 3 angle valve job


So your looking at 1,300 for the parts + to get the engine block bored
How much is all that? and who would you call for that.

get it sleeved, probalby around 1k unless you have someplace local and dont have to pay for shipping

[HondaFan81]

This project will be more than $1300 and you don't even sound like you can handle the assembly of all this yourself, so are you going to pay someone? Late summer of 2008? I don't think so. You need to rethink all this and do more detailed research, you're just scratching the surface right now.

If you want boost why is this in the N/A section?

[bagoon316]

go on 7thgenhonda and talk to exturbo (steve) or andyman (andy), steve is said to push well over 400 when his d17 is done, and he too is having a shop do his and its takin them some time. andy did his himself and it took him a while, he is pushing 375. there is a lot more with this in an em1/2 as well. you have to redo the timing gear. i would look over there, there are quite a few of them that are boosted. you talk about the dezod kit, but most of them with the kit are only pushing 225hp, that is also stock block, but i dont know how much there kit can actually push.

andy is very knowledgable about these cars and boost, and whats involved with them.

with the timing gear, you either run hondata or kpro or something combined i cant remember how that goes, but the ecu mod is also close to a grand i think.

gotcha, its just a foreseeable thinking. who knows what I wanna do .. yet.

Nugatory becuase it's going NA


but anyways

I emailed a place by me and this is what they gave me for a price:

this is for labor(if i bring them the parts)

To install darton sleeves, bore/hone, deck block, jet wash, align
mainline and assemble bottom end would be $1500.

P&P would run around $1100 including comp 5 angle vavejob, surfacing,
new valve seals and jetwash.

Is this cheap? worth it? etc.

I don't understand why you're so insistent on fucking up your reliable, running car.

For the exact same reason we all mod our reliable, running cars...
