1st, props to you for staying B series. We are a dying breed. Save the B at all cost.

LL THE B SERIES

[@Aisha_LadyBuilt]

Thank you! It’s so true!

[@luisviera3482]

I agree with you but ones you have some of that N/A k all motor or on the bottle 🍼 is addictive lol 💪💪

[@dawsonmacie6984]

[@richieb74]

Love the b series

[@jimhiscott2918]

Your braver then i am. I paid cnc werx, 4P and head works to build my motor. You did a fantastic job on your engine! You never had one failure. Excellent work❤

So glad to see a quality B series build for the civic absolutely the best motor option by far. Can't wait to see the rest as it progresses to long block & installed. Any Honda chassis that had a B-series variant should always go / stay B-Series they are one of if not the best 4 cylinder engine ever created (F20C is a toss up) but definitely by far the best Transverse mounted inline 4 of all time. Why people want to mess with perfection is beyond me. Sure NA bolts on only the k series can make more power & tq but with extra weight on & in front of drive axles. Moving any weight from oem location in regards to motor & trans in my opinion is least ideal option as Honda designed & built the chassis + related components based on specific placement/size/weight/configuration of OEM motor defining the handling characteristics & most importantly overall balance of vehicle. Even more so as other swap related components continue to shift farther away from how it was designed to feel & behave. A motor mount manufacturer goes with whatever will clear and will be operational with zero regard to vehicle dynamics, handling, or balance. Where as Honda has put tons of R&D into each chassis w/ it's specific motor by specialists & some of the worlds best engineers in order to achieve specific goals in regards to how it feels, behaves, & handles all based on the chassis motor relationship. Modifications should improve upon original design by carefully increasing capabilities of specific components while maintaining and or even improving that balance vs swapping something as integrally vital to the design as the motor & motor placement/size/weight your then starting modifications from a disadvantage to get back to "neutral" before you can start to improve and how many k swap civics are then set up by Honda engineers. Plus it's only advantage NA+bolt ons higher power/tq becomes a negative with weight distribution & CG etc thrown off then unable to make the most of increased power without proper balance to put it all down effectively. If it's only a bolts NA drag built or straight line street car then K your heart out but anything handling wise B series will always have advantage of being designed around the B. Not to mention if going with Forced Induction B series has many more advantages especially high power levels anything over 400hp B series far better suited especially at reliability & powerband suited to boost & putting the power down taking the stress of F.I. B series Axles + Trans vs constant K series points of failure.

Curious what we seen for rod stretch gauge .0065?

[@Alexei55555]

Nice smile 😊

[@guzmaroperez7317]

I working on the same engine but I need help finding all the parts for the rebuild

[@guzmaroperez7317]

Help

[@Aisha_LadyBuilt]

What parts are you looking for?

[@KeepinItReal890]

nice

[@Aisha_LadyBuilt]

Thank you 🙏

[@maxaranajr.8933]

Convert your bore size millimeter to inches then multiply by these two numbers .006 and .0065 that’s the first ring, then go up 2 or 3 more thousands of an inch to your second ring, once you have done all the math you will see that there is a range gap for the piston rings, this will vary from motor to motor due to bore size EX:note 75mm bore Top ring .006x2.95inch=0.017 .0065x2.95inch=0.019 Bottom ring Up 3 .020-.022

[@maxaranajr.8933]

This is just information I collected through the web and also from schooling as a auto tech
