thats the rough idea... i dont care much for the vtec.. but i like the idea of having that little bit extra flow on the upper end.

Then find a B20 with a P8R head. Flows better than an LS head. Even has VTEC B series intake valves.

i just cant get away from you can i??!!
yeah i should be able to fit them and tack them in with one visit, but it might require you to handel some of the body work on your end... (i forgot how long that crap actully takes!!)
speaking of body work...
I shot the front bumper and one fender semi gloss black to see how it would look... Im digging it. so i think after i get all my primer down and get the car blocked out ill hit it all up with some of that...
other than that i havent done much recently;
pulled the molding
sanded down all the old filler
hit every thing with some glazing putty
and fitted the new cf hood (looks great!)

i wouldnt feel safe with that... i have seen too many bad things on the cylinder walls being too thin and the lower end... though, i cant remember off hand what lower end issues... but im sure i saw it some where...
no im happy with my choice....
well guys sad to say, the hatch no longer is mine!
i traded it even up for a 94 delsol si
the 1.6l vtec will make my engine build bunches easier and i just love the looks of the sols

Well just for the donation I thank you. This is our 5th year doing the show and this one was the best so far. Maybe not the biggest, but with quality and weather it made it a great day.
Next year as long as Teal is cool with it i'll throw the flyers up on here for the show. I personally would like to see more of my culture there. Although I will say I judged way more tuners than minis.
My hatch will be there next year, being that I work the show I wont be in the running for awards or judging. But none the less it'll be there.
Congrats on the new del sol buy. Get that shit going and ready for the season.

There is nothing wrong with a B20 as a basic motor. Its true, it does have thinner walls, but that wont effect it with normal driving and such.

right up untill the cylinder cracks thru to the water jacket !
flat out, i got a heck of a deal on a b18a swap, so thats the block i have in the corner of my garage right now. if you can find me a b20 block for free then sure ill use it. But as far as i see the b18 blocks are cheap and plentyfull and i expect that ill f somthing up and trash a few blocks... always happens
i know im spreading the word... and i assume ill get a flyer mailed next year in advance of the show (this year i saw that it was going on 2 days before the show!) soo ill make sure my friends show....
hopefully the new sol will be show worthy by then!
