personally, id pass on the sohc..
get yourself a ls swap...you wont be dissapointed
then eventually you can go ls/vtec
get yourself a vtec head, nice cams, decent header/int manifold, and hondata and youll be set.
if you need any help, or direction
give me a call

z6 and y8 both base 125/130ish to the crank so that was my guess also,around 120,also i read on hondatech of a y7 with y8 head that merked on a ls,and after messing with a compression calculator i figured id shoot for the stars?

Anyone can trade. If you knew how to trade shit off, less money would be needed. You paid 2600 for a b16 eg swap? That's ridiculous!

115-125 whp... you would be lucky to hit 130 whp

or you could just put in some arp head studs, a new y8 2-layer hg, and then boost it. should be good for about ~210 whp. and can be done for about $800. then you can walk away from an ls.

well till the motor blows, and you find parts of your rods in the oil pan.

all motor d16 < any B or turboed stock block d16
