to start off this is a pretty straight forward build, if you have rebuilt the stock motor this will be easy
with that said lets get started
Parts list
-d17 crank,rods,pistons,rings,rod bearings,oil pump,rear main seal, valve cover,dip stick, oil pan
-d16 block your choice I had a spare y8 so it was free
-d16 head again your pick I had a y7 and was free so I went with it
mill your block .030 at the LEAST by my measurements .042 can be removed to level pistons to block I has .030 removed
the block and gurlde need to be notched for clearnace!
put the pistons in
put the crank on after plastigauge the mains I reused rod bearings so no need to check them tq the gurlde
on the y8 block the d17 rear main seal matched perfectly IDK about other blocks
d17 oil pump matched perfect too like I said IDK about other blocks
Crank was machined down to accept a d16 timing gear and crank pulley, JD enlightened me that a b18 pulley will fit with no mods!
for the head I milled the y7 .040 to net a 11.3:1 CR ported it, ported a z6 manifold, VTEC intake springs all around and a delta 272 cam was used
the build in action
