im planning to perform this swap by the end of summer. i was turned on to a company called atarrco (sp?) i was told i could get a b18c1 long block for about 1000-1100 from then. could i just use the b18 parts from the b18a i have in my car now and just swap the head and block and wire up vtec? i know its not that easy and involves more than that, i need more info before i embark on this project.
read the vtec swap guide in the teg tips, that has most all the info you need.
does that place have a website???..1000…thats cheap…wait long block= head+bottom end…with all distributor, injectors, etc?
Jrock: Jason, Atarrco is in Berkeley off Gilman. I’ve been there and they have tons of B18A/B/C as well as B16s there with pretty decent prices. Call 411.
cool…thanks…i’ll keep it in mind…im thinking of going all motor now…just got to save now…
Do you know if this company ships? Cuz i live in los angeles and I’ve been thinking of performing a swap on my car…
