Diff Between B6D and B6T

Post by Nd4SpdSe »

Just curious, if there any difference int he block, head, internals, etc, between the stock DOHC B6D and the B6T. If the internals on the B6T are stronger then the B6, etc...

Head is diffrent, Cams are diffrent, manfiolds are diffrent but the exsuast manifold is transferable, the b6ze has a higher compression ratio )the b, and from what i understand both of them have significantly strong internals.

Block is also different, B6T has low compression pistons which are like 7.8:1 instead of the B6D pistons which are 9.5:1. The B6T rods are also much stronger and thicker than the B6D rods.
