Re: Piston, Crank, Rods, and flywheel upgrades. Need help!!!

Thanks for the heads up on what to watch for. Any advice on where to get some high performance pistons, rod, crank, and flywheel for the BP then? Is there a manufacturer that should be avoided or one that is more desireable than the other? Thanks again for all the help so far Ryan.

Re: More tales of electrical woe...

My advice would be to check all of the connectors in the wiring where you were last in since it is entirely possible that the securing lock wasn't fully engaged and it slipped loose or became partially disconnected.

I'll see if I can get it on a newer chassis ...

Re: Piston, Crank, Rods, and flywheel upgrades. Need help!!!

As far as the compatibility goes, B6-de head will fit and work since the blocking of the different passages is controlled by the head gasket. Both blocks use the same casting and machining. So if I do get my hands on a BP then my next question would be what is the compatibility of my f series Mtx an...

Piston, Crank, Rods, and flywheel upgrades. Need help!!!

I am currently upgrading my '92 1.6 SOHC B6-ME w/ Mtx by swapping to the B6-DE head, intake, exhaust header, harness and ecu. I could use some advice on what crank, pistons, rods, and flywheel to use for more strength. I want to stick with the F series mtx that I already have. Are there any heavy du...

Re: B6 Headers, etc. - Not a rehash

So have you been able to get header that works with little modification to the header yet?
Can you offer me some advise on how to build up my b6me for more performance? I have acess to a machine shop to do alot of what might need to be done. Thanks
