will they fit? i understand that because they are of a lower grade, some of the power is negotiated but will it work at all? will my engine run basically.

help!

 

i think i posted this in the wrong forum. im sorry moderators!

 

Yes they will.

 

of course they will cams frum the B16 are basically the same as as Type R cams , thed add a little more lift to edge out GS-R cams, being B16 is a little smaller on displacment it needs better camsto get more air in teh cylinders. Technically B16 Si cams and Type R cams are the same, so tell meeh why not B18C1 cams fit a B18C5? the heads are identical, minus intake plenums etc.

 

the b16 and b18c5 heads are from the same casting... the c5 has a major port job though.

the b18c1 head is different than both of them and yeilds a higher compression than either.

 

Blah blah blah, the compression being greater is achieved by the pistons, if yu tore one down yu would tell the diffrant between the pistons. its 2 early in the morning for this BS

 

i dont know who you are but many things can effect compression. the c5 has a greater compression than a c1, but thats only because the pistons compression value outweighs that of the higher lid on the pr3 casting of the head.

there is less room in the c1's head, it achieves higher compression

if you put type-r pistons in with a c1 head you'd achieve about 11.1:1 compression over the 10.9:1 compression of the typical usdm c5

this is the same reason increasing the thickness of the head gasket lowers the compression ratio whle decreasing it decreases the compression ratio

 

Becuase we in the east is where YU guys get yur JDM parts frum when yu want them so badlly, were the middle person persay, yu read a little question and fact sheet and yu think yu know it, but no yu dont, yu need to read a diffrant book.And i would kno this because we dont have last alphanumeric as US hondas do on engines. Real JDM is such as H22A no 1 or 4 or K20A B16A B18A/B/C
F20C G25A J35A i could go on and on, when we have these engines we have to completelly kno about the engine, bot by if it has a 1 as the last digit or 5 (B18C5) cause our engines dont have thatits solelly B18C rather in an R or a GSR
we go by bearing codding and indext coding on the decked part of the block, Oh yeah yur american conterparts arent decked

 

i understand what you are saying there... but compression is effected by both the pistons as well as many other things.

the pr3 head found on the b16 as well as the type-r b18c yeilds a lower compression when used with the same pistons as a GSR, p72, casting.

 

NOt to get all hot headed in the morning, that may apply to the models and engines in the states. Cool. if so ive learned sumthin. When i do visit my cousins shop Endless Performance in VA i werked on these cars and never gave a second thought that it might have a small diff besides the ones we have, just that where american modles are stamped as B18C1 or 5 and ours is onlee B18C
