Tuning Cam Gears On A 220HP All Motor B20VTEC 

Help! I want to put a Bigger Engine in my Del Sol for fun not racing... i am looking at the 185 B16B JDM... I would like 220 hp but not sure... want a reliable solid engine.. Any recommendations? Thanks!

@@MikeKollin B18C6 or B18C7 would be my Pick for best of the B series But if you can't find or afford the JDM Type R dc2r engine, the B18C5 is Also a Great engine, Good for N/A will easily get you to the 200-220whp mark an 330-380whp as a turbo, (not using Dynojet figures)

@@jjsorenavki7005 Is this the engine you are talking about? They don't have any in stock right now! www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/b-series/b18c-96-98-typer-complete-change-over/

@@jjsorenavki7005 P.s. found the one, same HP and Torque but this one is a Long Block... i have no idea what the difference is as in would there be an advantage and if it would still fit in a Del Sol: www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/b-series/b18c-type-r-long-block-97-spec/

@@MikeKollin Most of the engines from that site are out of Stock Mike,

I agree.!!

yes please!

He says clearly to advance slowly? 🙄

Yeah real art ... Removing the top of the timing belt and slightly turning the cams. Real art....

Except the K series IS a magical engine. ~ i-VTEC allows you to tune cam timing with a computer AND adjust it at any RPM. VTC is literally one of the greatest modern innovations in combustion engine design. ~ Honda made the K series their universal engine platform for 15 years. This means good used engines are cheap and plentiful now and in the foreseeable future. ~ H/B/F used engines are now hard to find because they were not made for as long of a time, and to boot not even all of them have VTEC which makes this problem worse. This is also why more S2000s are getting K-swaps. The F20C was a unique low-volume engine, and parts are either not as readily-available or are just more expensive than K parts. I respect the H/B/F platform as a diehard Honda fan myself. But you are smoking one if you think it's still the best Honda tuning platform. K is the way :]

Amen brother!

What did u make

Craig Voll I see you know what your talking about

What pistons?

@@RACEALOTGARAGE Supertech..

Dyno video is on my channel when it made 217whp and 138tq with the Edelbrock Intake Manifold.. Gained 3whp and 10tq at the top but 5-15whp and tq throughout the band when I switched go the Skunk2 Ultra Street IM..

My b20v stock block built head oem intake mani makes 220whp 155tq

@@klkk3382 what she trap? Et

I got a b16 head to slap on my b20 with p30 pistons should come out to 13:1 but i wanna do it on pump 93. No idea what the dyno will be.

Edgar have you ever dyno we have the same set up but I have a semi built b16 head type r cams with skunk2 cam gears with skunk 2 ultra mani and 74 throttle

Edgar I’m gonna tune on e85 hoping for 220

There’s always that one comment

​@@moustachio334yep always the negativity spreading dickhead just because he can :)

The graph showed about 155 whp

Gickels McDoogle it was stock bottom end??

@@Killmonger47213 yeah, so it was a bone stock B20B With PHK Pistons. No idea how it made 200+ with that block, but yeah, 217whp on a dynojet. Another Tuner ended up blowing up the motor after doing valve lash and adjusting timing. Something happened to where all of the valves touched the intake reliefs on all four Pistons, bent 4 valves, blew a hole in one piston and caused catastrophic failure to the whole motor. I sued them and won, despite signing a dyno waiver because THEY fucked up, still charged me 650 and vandalized the car after telling them it was their fault, not the motor. After explaining the reputation of the tuner (which I later found was HORRIBLE) The judge asked me, "so you drove the car there, almost an hour away, and.... Then you no longer had a functioning car less than an hour later" still lost a ton more in new parts, but I was awarded 1700 in damages, and he's been sued 3 times since.

Gickels McDoogle damm what shop with this?? And what state?

@@EgHatchK24a2 Maryland. Rhymes with Mynetick Cartoworks. For obvious reasons, I would prefer not to disclose in plain text :/

Gickels McDoogle wow bro that’s crazy .. there are trash ppl out there .. had a trash tuner before to 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

FullMusic I would love to see that as well because I also have b16a2 motor but I think the majority of people opt to swap out the bottom end with either b18 or b20.

Sentree i know i been thinking for a while to do try b20 bottom or b18 but idk ... I really love b16 cuz is a little engine but it moves

Same engine b20v

No..

Not normally. It’s more of valve overlap that becomes a problem.

@@moustachio334 So at one point too much advanced will gradually damage your valvetrain ?How much is the advance now ?

You have to do both

@@humbleperformance let's say, I have a good built motor and just dropped in cam gears and went straight to the dyno to get everything adjusted. Would I still be good?

You need to degree the motor to know where the cams can be advanced safely.

@@humbleperformance thanks for the quick reply. Basically, anyone who just slaps adjustable cam gears, get no full potential benefits from them unless done so. Thanks fam

@@humbleperformance another thing, to do true tdc, motor has to be out?

eric peterson I wanna say Oklahoma but I forget could probably google humble performance and it’ll come up.

E85 really doesn't make a difference from my experience on a setup like this. My GSR makes about the same power on motor, good #'s

slayerracing440 it’s good numbers I’m not saying that but you should see 15-25 whp from e85 just from the extra timing you can run cause of the more volume of fuel and it’s a lot more knock resistance and being 13.5:1 when I have a buddy same set up but 12.5:1 on 91 pump making 5 more wheel I would of thought at least 240 wheel from the extra timing and better fuel and the extra compression but I guess every set up is different shoulda boosted it on 10-12 pounds and made 300 it has a good head and head studs pistons and rod bolts would of been pretty reliable just would of have got 10:1 pistons instead but that’s just my 2 cents

All depends on the cams also!

@@hseriesonlymonctonnb1181 same thing im saying, then again...they only said built head, we dont know wat cams he running. I was honestly looking fir more. My mechanic has a built b20, 12.5 compression with some pro 2 cams making240 out here in jamaica and we dont have that good e85 like u guys.pump 91

Brandon Brown it has cams there was a video of the build I can’t remember off the top of my head but high comp pistons with a head package shout of made more in my eyes we on 91 here to but elevation plays a big factor like for intense full bolt on h22 make 200 whp all day were I’m from and I seen a pfi speed video were they had one male 180 and they were saying they only make 150 whp in Colorado

Following for cam spec. 😊

It's in the description if you haven't looked just looking out for you

Surely they weren't skunk2 stage 2 cams, they sound way different

Overrated K series and it’s cult following. It’s followers are clueless to the effects of variable valve tuning let alone how an engine using cam duration to produce horsepower.
