I know this is an older video, but holy shit thank you for the super in detail videos dude. I just built my first engine/D series and that screw driver trick for the head studs saved me so much time.

Best how to videos on engine building. I know a little about what I’m doing but this video helps with reinsurance. Thanks a lot! 😊

Hey man I really appreciate you taking the time to do this, it's really great step by step and less intimidating than reading a manual. Great work

I like watching people put motor together... I just love engines that much... especially underdogs... I'll never forget the first time I went for a ride in a boosted Mini-Me that was built. I remember one time we were driving along and it started making a clattering sound and I thought we spun a rod bearing or something and he was all nonchalant pullover. He threw a couple quarts of oil in it hopped back in the passenger seat and said let's go so I started it up it sounded fine... I was in awe. It ran for over another year at 32 lb of boost with a 60-1 in it. Oh I thought I'd bring this up. either I've been using my ring compressor backwards or you are. you're supposed to be able to tighten it up while the Piston is sliding in.

Gonna be building a block for boost soon! Thanks for the videos, should help me a lot! Good info.

brings me back when I did my z6 build.. I had bisimoto valve springs and retainers a level 2.3 camshaft for turbo an nitrous elimates Vtec. acl oil pump wellpro fuel pump srt4 injectors arias pistons on a godspeed ebay turbo it did got around 410hp with 398whp.. I skipped a lot of other parts I had in it but good video bro

this makes me wanna build a d16 so bad you make it look simple man

you make it look so easy to rebuild a D16 can't wait to start working on mine

Nice engine build... just to give you a heads-up you're using your piston ring compressor upside down. When the horizontal band goes around the Rings it tightens the Rings a little tighter than the rest of the Piston making it easier to go into the block. Also really surprised you didn't clean the deck or the head before putting the head on.

This block look pretty cool!!

Thank you for doing step by step . Not to many vid on KZfaq for d16y8 build step by step

Thanks for the upload vro

Thank you for this🔥

About to start my build here in Australia! D15B7 block is at the machine shop and D16Z6 head will be looked at soon, sourcing the bottom end from the states too

Did you use two different bearings for it, like the journal bearings and rod bearings? Or are they the same

It's finally here 😂 great video man

You a legend 🔥

Love the video but you forgot to say that the piston rings have a mark that need to go face up number or something 😊😊 and hit the piston alitter bit softer because you not want they hit the crankshaft sorry

Never seen or think myself to use a screwdriver to help locate the nut good trick.

Thanks for the info! Did you have to notch the block?

Muy buen video ya me dieron ganas de reparar mi crx

might build my y7 this summer. thanks for the videos, i probably would have done many things wrong

What measurements you used for piston ring gaps?

What name brand rod bearings and piston rings did you use? I have rods and pistons ready, about to build by z6. Not sure on rings and bearings though? Thanks in advance!

So the head studs you put in the block are only hand tightened right?

Great, what was p2w clearance & end gap on the rings? Thanks for sharing in advance. I got a hold of some AV 100LL today lol runs great in the D16z6!

that is nice

did you check the clearance of ur bearings? or you just slap in a OEM size bearing no problem?

Is there any more vids on this build ? looking for all the info i can get thanks

Im a young enthusiast(15) and am very curious and how would you say eager to build my own engine as more of a learning tool(an old junkyard engine or whatso) the only problem is that i live in a apartment soooo... life sucks just cuz not being about to do car things(would you recomend me doing so)

is the cam oem or aftermarket. how much was the short block it looks like its been sleeved? there another channel "boostedboiz" that built a d-series and they hire over 400hp at like 30psi but they drilled and tapped the block for b-series head studes

What about the ring gaps measured in the bore in case the ends butt together if over heated? Just a thought that wasn't said.

Magnetic pass through nut driver

Great video

you should make a video showing how to rebuild the head

Thanks for all the info. I was going to buy a d16 off of ebay to build but its obviously going to be dirty and used, and not like what you have in the video. Will i need to get it re sleaved or anything and should i shoot for cleaning it up to what u have in the video or is that even possible.

wondering if you could make a how to video on puttin a vtec head on a D16y7 block

Are those connecting rod cap bolts and crank bolts torqued dry or with oil on the threads?

Great job! Just out of curiosity, how many engines have you built?

Don't know if you did this before hand/off camera. Aren't you suppose to place the piston rings inside the cylinder first, use the piston to guide it in evenly, then measure the gap and file down until you reach a certain thickness? I remember having to do this on my wife's 03 Santa Fe and brothers '79 305 big block.

Hi Honda How To, I am planning on running an eagle rod/vitara piston combo on my d16z6 with a fairly large turbo (gt3071r) and its pretty laggy up until 4k rpms. I was considering leaving the head stock, but I want to rev higher as the turbo will make good power on the top end. Which valve springs and retainers are you running? I have been having trouble on deciding what to get. Thanks!

How come u didn't plastic gauge the bearings? I'm also from mn. Thanks.

awesome Job man. could i get a list of all the mods categorized by each section of the engine block? im pretty new to this and i just want to research and learn about the parts you used. Thanks!

I have a question about a z6 intake swap I did if you have time. I appreciate and nice video that's a beautiful d16

how many arp washers did your package come with? Mine came with 11?? Because I had one left over. The package part number was AMW750N

would the torque specs be the same on a d16y8? also what did you torque the crank cradle to?

where did u buy the parts? did it come as a kit

Hey wats up man, i just wanted to know, what pistons did you use, or other options do i have, for reinforcing the build so i dont blow with boost.

because of how flat the deck is, i assume it has a welded in block guard?

Hey bro how did the 70 foot pound torque go? any problem? Or else was thinking of doing 60-65.

I don't use ring compressors I just have three pipe clamps welded on each other

That was not a tap LMAO great vid bro keep it up

Summit has good ones

Ring question answered in this video Thanks.

I install my piston rod assembly in before installing the crank to avoid damage to crank. Plus much easier to install rod bearings. Just a tip.

Thank

what was the head calibrated to? also, the torque on the head for a small turbo, would 60-65 be sufficient??

is that a block gaurd or a css closed deck

Go Gophers!

more vídeos :)

did you use a used block or a new one

How long can we drive boosted engine

Are those pre gap rings?

bro vape life

Is all of it stock pistons and stock valve

he used the install tool upside down.The band closest to the end goes to the block ,that way it keeps the full tightness of the band on the ring.they're are also 3 protrusions on the bottom that helps keep the thin metal from going into the cylinder sleeve.he's right about the lube,use oil and lots of it.the rest of the build looks great.

Long live the SOHC

did you gap the rings?

any how to do cam dial-in with the single cam .... need to dial in my bisi lvl x....... MN represent!!!!!

How much was it to sleeve the block ?

I feel like more lube should’ve been used and all the cylinders I’ve always lubed with transmission oil prior to piston install

song ??

Where'd you get your block and heads from

So what's the advantages of using headstuds over the factory bolts? Newbie question I know lol

Wonder how long it lasted with out the head dowels :/

Hey man..i know this video is old but I want to change my piston rings and need some but the dealer price are too expensive. Where you get yours. ? I have a D17A2 engine, civic, 75mm bore.

What music is that

hi don't you Blue print the engine, don't you messuremens of cilinder bores crank shaft?

What's the parts list?

What all did u put in head ????

question.... what song is this?

To me it looks like u forget the dowels

Um you didn't measure ring gaps and didn't bothered to plastic gauge bearings, bet he won't adjust the valves

vape !

You forgot the dowels

Is it me or did he miss a bearing

wouldn't build your car with this vid. its a good vid but not for beginners, missing some steops
