Hi All
I’m looking for a bit of advice re an engine build.
I currently have a b16b with the normal bolt ons and a 4.9FD and a lightened flywheel.
It’s the standard engine with the codes matching the chassis etc so pretty original in that sense.
I’ve just picked up a full b18c bottom end with pistons , rods, crank etc in decent condition for a decent price.
I’m not looking to go for mental power.
Does anyone have any thoughts for me/ options for me ?
A few people say find a new head and flog them b16b as they make decent money. I’m a bit slow to do so because it’s the original engine and I know they are getting hard to come by.
Any other options / thoughts re build ?
Cheers
