    .
    so plugging oil squirters worries you, but taking a SOHC Block, with a DOHC head, and putting K series pistons in it is ok.

    interesting

    BTW H23 VTECs are cheap, under $1500 for a longblock

    If you think $1500 is high, id love to see what you will spend on that Hybrid engine. Sorry id take the H23 VTEC and slap it in my car with a header an ride out. Thats the cheapest thing to do and its OEM FACTORY RELIABILITY

    That H23 VTEC is such a good deal! Almost makes me want to get a EG and put that in it as a DD...would just have to figure out how to do the A/C.

    its the ringland of the H that is the downfall, correct?

    thats cheap considering i paid 1K for a h22 from nads

    as for a/c custom lines and hasport a/c bracket? or just the custom lines will be sufficient since its all ran on 1 belt.

    get a f20b and have oem relaibility, FRM sucks. the displacement isnt going to make that much of a difference when you are just talking about 200whp

You obviously did not read the main purposes behind the build. Keep in mind, I thin the Honda H23Vtec still has those damn FMR walls as well... ;-). If you want to build that for me for half the price, then be my guest!

    damn frm walls huh. The guys at Porsche are just morons too i guess. Damn frm walls.

    just do want u wanna do, but listen to more experienced ones. everyone is lookin out for u so u dont dump money into something thats gonna leave you stranded. FRM does not suck. whoever says this is crazy. if u researched why honda created this u would think different. Lower friction, less wear, and awesome rev is wat i want in my honda motor and frm sleeves provide that. Vteckidd is just letting u know pros and cons, where to put your money where not to. even though he can be vicious he knows whats up. do the build and see for yourself what happens. I prefer acl bearings because oem ones have a color code to them you have research. i have acl bearings in my h22 and i have not had a problem yet.

    i personally would not do it, im not a big fan of hybrids, i rather oem (im big on reliability) but out of all that has been said if i had to choose i would go with the h23 block, at least its a dohc block, and not that expensive

    hey i just went and read that article, it makes sense, you should def. let us know what happens if you decide to try it. If you can build one for that price im willing to bet that the "G23" will be the next big all motor that will be seen more often
