Hello all, it has been a while since I have done posts on here, I wana share my blueprinted turbo engine build with you all and hopefully get some feedback. Well first I started with a block I bought that was bare bone with darton sleeves already in it at 89mm bore. here is the block before I did anything.
This block was already bored and honed so all I did was a simple ball hone on a drill with hone oil after I decked the block. I installed a kaizen speed balance shaft eliminator kit before I proceeded to anything further. Then I installed my ACL race bearings. Here are my pistons and rods. Wiseco 8.5:1 compression ratio forged turbo pistons with upgraded wrist pins and Carrillo H-beam rods. The guy I bought the block from actually decked the shit out of it so the pistons were proud of the block by about .015 in. CP generously decked the top of the pistons for me no charge, but this did raise my compression ratio a little bit so I will use a thick cometic head gasket.
I also sent out my stock crankshaft for nitride hardening, micropolish, and precision balance and If you dont know already stock honda crankshafts are forged and capable of over 800hp. Here it is.
Heres the fresh cylinders.
Heres a picture of the installed pistons. I used a stretch bolt gauge to tighten the carrillo bolts, it is much more accurate than a torque reading.
And here is the mostly finished bottom end with its new paint job.
