·i remember a post about a guy building up a sohc that took pictures and listed his parts for a SOHC build up. if you remember the link let me know. i remember that in one of the pics he was holding an A1 piston and doing a close up on it.
well if you cant find it then i need some help. im looking to do an All motor build up for a d16. right now i have a d16a6 block with a Y8 head. its converted over to obd1 but it just doesnt have the power that i want. i know im slightly limited to power, but the head will be built also. the part i need help with is the block. i have an extra d16a6 block and want to know what to mate with it. im checking my resource tomorrow to see if d16a1 pistons can be had for a decent price. now i need to know what rods to use(im using all ARP bolts) and any other internals that matter. can i get the pistons oversized? how much should i bore the block without losing its integrity(this will be streetable). i ran the numbers on this compression calculator and got about 12.6:1. http://www.knology.net/~jediklc/D.htm
numbers i used were d16a6 block, d16y8 head, p29 pistons, d16y8-d16z6 head gasket, OEM ZC piston to deck height. does this sound right??? numbers i did get again were 12.6:1 with that.
help me out so i can build a killer D series.
no i dont want to swap, no i dont want turbo. i also own a 93 rx7 so i have my FAST TOY. i want a bad ass commuter/autoX/d series monster.
