lol WOOOO WEEE look what i just stumbled across in a wiseco article! this was just something that popped up on my news feed. lmao not even me lookin for validation. blog.wiseco.com/common-causes-of-blowby-and-oil-cons… If you are planning a new engine, consider the advantages of using a standard pressure and volume oil pump. If the oil clearances in the engine are set properly, a standard pressure and volume pump will deliver more than sufficient oil pressure. Adding a larger high-volume pump often results in the pump merely by-passing more oil which only increases oil temperature because most oil pumps internally re-circulate the oil rather than dumping it back in the pan. Either way, this is wasted effort.

VHB Engines good reads. Thanks Chris. Cleared up my questions about it. 😀👍

Thank you bruh! 😂 finally the video I was looking for. Good stuff

[@bambamsixteen]

Great vids man I’ve been looking for good info vids on the d series for a while! Thanks!

[@BoostedPastime]

Thank you so much for making this video.

[@crxsleeper18]

No issues here at 330ish hp on a z6 stock oil pump. I wish I shimmed and ported for self comfort but no issues. My buddy's was shimmed and he spun bearings on like 3 motors lol

[@irvindorsey8586]

think u have to have 10,000subs for the polls

We can't forget that the main and rod bearing journals share oil between each other with the 45 degree or whatever passeges lol i think a lot of the issues with any crank be it a z6 crank or y7/8 is when this passage or "buddy system" of sharing oil gets starved due to low oil. maybe the z6 crank deals with a low oil situation "better" since the journals are cross drilled and theres extra oil chilling there in this little boulevard? the y7/y8 cranks litterally have to slingshot oil to just one hole per journal on some hail mary shit and if the mains suffer, so do the rods right... im pretty sure you could do some impressive work to a a y7 y8 crank by simply cleaning out these passages ( like with a bore brush ) and chamfering the edge of this passage in the same direction the crank spins. or... just dont run too low on oil..😂

[@lapieces]

The shop is porting my y8 oil pump

[@iamevolmonkey]

I think why people have more problems with the Y series cranks is because they are using very thin weight oil and it was not meant for the abuse that they give it

[@VHBEngines]

Ryan McCormick possibly. My question is who on the channel had done the build multiple times with both cranks, and who’s just sayin what they’ve heard 🤔😁

[@preludedudesi5208]

The Y cranks have 1 oil hole on the rod journal vs the z6 has 2 and keeps the rod bearing more lubricated

[@erickorellana7736]

Funny af. The "quote " in the beginning. Lol. That good news. Less work, less money. Invested. Awesome to know.

[@MrZeroLag]

What oil viscosity people using? I was recommended a 10-50 esther synthetic oil which has better lubricating properties....

[@TheLifeOfMartin]

what's the highest hp you made on y7 y8 oil pump and crank and how long did it last???

[@usdm_demio]

Ive heard that the z6 oilpump is also better is this a myth or truth in your opinion?

[@TheLifeOfMartin]

I have d16y7 with 259k miles. Never spun a bearing.

[@CSGtechnologies]

Red Panda Mine did. I'm very sad because Honda parts are gold in my country.

[@TheLifeOfMartin]

Civic D16 what country??

[@CSGtechnologies]

Red Panda Brazil. Wanna do business? Send parts to the guys here.

[@TheLifeOfMartin]

what parts do you need???

[@CSGtechnologies]

Z6 Head with vtec fitv iacv and et cetera. All top parts. LoL

[@anthony6972]

HEY!! Can I put a Y8 or Y7 crank in a Z6 block?? Fucked up my Z6 crank and I have A Y7 available to replace it.

[@VHBEngines]

Anthony yes

[@anthony6972]

Thanks for the reply! Just found your channel. Great fucking content! Is the crank a direct replacement without modification? Read something about the Z6 having 2 oil holes and the Y7 having 1

[@VHBEngines]

Anthony direct replacement. Go through my d series playlist. Have a video on the details

[@anthony6972]

Thanks man

[@eksalazar4288]

What about scoh d16a6? Im about to do a d16a6\y8 minime turbo ussing almos all your d16 build sudgestions. Looking for 350+ on my 89 crx si

[@VHBEngines]

b20v gang same as what I said in the video

[@eksalazar4288]

Ok thanks chris

[@Hohmies86]

I have a z6 completely stock, I plan on runnin a cheap turbo with maybe 9 pounds at most, have a fun car while I build my k24 motor. My concerns are I blow my z6 before I am finished with my k. What are your thoughts

[@VHBEngines]

Boost pressure is irrelevant when judging power without a very detailed and specific outcome. Don't go over 210whp and if your engine is healthy it shouldn't be an issue

[@hondahowtoguy2239]

@Hohmies Mcfly good tuning

[@11wrx_sedan27]

Absolutely not ! LMFAO

[@VHBEngines]

db7_ Integra 😎

[@2009stevecry]

Absolutely not... Whats to gain with more oil, who needs that right. -Said only prius owners

[@VHBEngines]

2009stevecry Lol put all kinds of extra effort into whatever you want. At then end of the day if you don’t it’ll run the same. If you don’t want to except that 🤷‍♂️
