Poor Man's OBD

[redblackfan]

Well I was thinking if I have a B18C1 block and mate it with a first gen B16A head, will it be OBD0?

[Barefoot]

you can make it what ever obd u want. doesnt matter the block or head.

[redblackfan]

I thought OBD came with the dizzy, intake

[green91]

Theres so much more to this than the dizzy. What car are you trying to put it into?

[redblackfan]

89 crx

[green91]

Best bet with 89 crx is to convert to obd1.

Best bet with 89 crx is to convert to obd1.:goodjob::goodjob::goodjob:

on the egine side get everything obd0 for the car. then a jumper harness and a chipped/socketed p28

the obd is a combo of the engine electrical components and ecu.

[redblackfan]

well if i convert to any obd then it would be two and then i would just get a full gsr but how would obd1 work

[redblackfan]

[Barefoot]

the answer is yes/sry buddy the answer is no. there is more to obd than just a head.

[redblackfan]

what all makes something OBD

[Barefoot]

dizzy, harness, alt, injectors, ecu, crank postion sensor (obd2 or the trick). there are a few other odds and ends but for the most part those are your main pieces.

[redblackfan]

well what if I have a full obd0 b16a motor but a gsr tranny from a b18c1 thats obd0. I really just want the tranny but thought since i have the traany why not the block

[redblackfan]

b18 handle boost better than b16 right

[Barefoot]

well what if I have a full obd0 b16a motor but a gsr tranny from a b18c1 thats obd0. I really just want the tranny but thought since i have the traany why not the blockgsr tranny will not work in your crx unless u get a hydro to cable conversion kit. like this
http://hasport.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=22_23&products_id=179. if not u will have to get a cable tranny.

[Barefoot]

b18 handle boost better than b16 rightno replacement for displacement.

[redblackfan]

well then it will work a gsr tranny and b16a and it will be obd0

[Barefoot]

well then it will work a gsr tranny and b16a and it will be obd0what

[redblackfan]
