go LS/VTEC, so i can buy your b17 for bragging rights. jp. i would like a b17 though. if you do go LS/VTEC email me or something. i will buy your b17 and tranny for a respectable price.
the only thing i know is building your b17 might be a little tricky as there aren’t as many parts made specifically for it that i know of, i’m not 100% on that seeing as me looking for b17 parts would be like lookin for a turbo kit on a ferarri, i dont own one so its useless. last time i heard, the b17 was a little limited on parts. prolly changed now that the g2 teg is starting to go mainstream. you seen all the features in mags this past year. DAYYUM however there are loads of parts out there for ls motors and ALL the vtec heads so your options there are only what your budget allows. but either way, i’m sure you wont be disappointed.
imcnblu~ where in front royal are you? i might be able to get u a gsr out of n. va… aim me at pennywiselax13 or e-mail b17aprincess@hotmail.com
I recently helped a friend build up his B17A that we dropped into his 91 Teg. If he wants to come forward and share his name, it’s up to him. but here’s the list of mods…
ACL Bearings
.025 over PCT pistons (CTR)
Cometic .045" thick head gasket
RC 270cc Injectors
J’s Racing Program PR3 ECU
Apexi V-AFC
CTR Valve Train and Cams
B&M Commandflo Fuel Pressure Regulator & Gauge
13.5lb lightened and balanced stock flywheel
Exedy Clutch
I think there are more mods but can’t remember. Here are a few pictures…
Where’d you get that funny block drain plug?
Good job on the thicker cometic. I’m going to put an .060" on my CTR powered B17a soon. California’s 91 octane isn’t cutting the mustard.
The block drain is actually a block heater. Used for colder climates that you Cali guys don’t have to worry about. hehehe.
No wonder I’ve never seen one 
G2guro - it says 92 gsr 13.9 1/4 mile. is that your car? or your friends car?
do you know what the HP he is running? how is it tuned?
imcnblu – aim> krisaceman msn: missionimpossible33@hotmail.com or krisb17a1@hotmail.com
1st - I would only be selling the block. I need the head and tranny for an LS/VTEC swap which looks to me like I will be doing.
if you want the block, i might sell it. it runs perfect. nothing wrong with it.

looking to hear from G2Guro… if you get this… post how I can get a hold of you. I would like to know about the 13.9 1/4 time. thanks.
missionimpossible33@hotmail.com or aim krisaceman
thanks
thats his car, built b18c1 look in his profile.
hmmm… south florida huh ?.. why not at that Towers meet last friday night ?
to the last 2 guys who posted, do u hav b17’s? im assuming you do b/c of your names…
are your motors built or stock?
i live dead in the center of front royal, practically directly across from the autozone. i am interested in the b17. if you could get it, about how much is the asking price. thanks, i would have sent an email or IM’d you but i dont have AIM and i’m about to go to bed, so i dont have time to email.
to the member who offered just the block, i’d like the whole motor. i dont wanna put a different head on a b17. or even try to source a b17 head. thanks though. dont wanna make the b17 a frankenstein.
What’s so special about a B17 head?
News flash to those that don’t know. PR3 head casting is the same for B18C5 (other than a VERY mild port job), B16A, B16A2, and B17A. The B18C1 is the only blacksheep (P72 Head) with the stupid inverted intake plennum.
