hey get more update and content on this build. i wanna see how this epoxy css turned out to be. i don't see no other TH-cam doing a full process after getting epoxy into the block and then thats pretty much it.
I will be doing a on going process with this build. It might take a couple months before it’s all together and tuned, but we have high hopes for making over 600hp after tuned and running 10’s at the track with this car
So in about a year you haven't ran into overheating issues or anything like thag thinking about doing epoxy for my budget b18ls just because I can't afford a machine shop and sleeves rn is it worth it?
It’s not at 650whp yet, but I’m not worried about putting it there. The car did run 10.8 @135mph. So I know it’s making closer to 600whp to do that speed
@@wickedsatan1 I’m not worried , we just don’t want to start breaking gears until we are ready to replace them with quality gears . I put the power in a fun but safe zone, no overheating so far
Everyone has their own opinion, but done correctly this is a great way to add some safety to a budget build. I’ve also seen more failures from sleeved motors than OEM sleeves for a daily / weekend setup. This car is still going strong at 600hp
Thanks information.from indonesia.buck

So far so good
Hi how has it held up im wanting to use mine as a daily just worried about the poxy breaking of after continuous heat cycles
The motor is still going strong, only issues has been breaking the transmission with the power lol
@@barryc1635 thank you for your reply great channel keep it up breaking gearboxes is fine as long as it isn't the engine 😅
So I was told to go 2 sizes bigger than 3/32. You think 1/8 is a bit small??
I went bigger than the original recommendation on this block, myself, the water flow was just fine
Do you need to deck the top and bore it or is that just a suggestion?
I personally would. Anytime you add something that could distort the cylinder shape , it would be smart to hone or bore afterwards
@@barryc1635oh okay and what do you think would be a good amount of epoxy for a 500 hp built bottem end I was thinking 1/2
@@Crack-lk4px if you buy the kit from Chris Boyette it comes with the proper amount, it’s between 3/4 and 1 inch think which finished
Do you have a link to the epoxy link?
On Facebook. Search Chris’s Epic Tuning. Just send him a message on what motor you are doing and he will respond with the prices. He makes the epoxy
Que marca de epoxy debo usar?
I got this epoxy from Chris Boyette. Chris’s Epic Tuning
Do you still suggest this method?
Is still a good budget way of adding some safety to the sleeves. Personally going with a true CSS would be the preferred route to go
What's the name brand of Expoxy your using ❓Nice Job👍
Chris Boyette makes it. Look him up on FB
How is it holding up at 650 whp?
It’s not at 650whp yet, but I’m not worried about putting it there. The car did run 10.8 @135mph. So I know it’s making closer to 600whp to do that speed
@@barryc1635 why worried? Is epoxy not strong? Also had heat up issues?
@@wickedsatan1 I’m not worried , we just don’t want to start breaking gears until we are ready to replace them with quality gears . I put the power in a fun but safe zone, no overheating so far
@@wickedsatan1 I said if the first reply that I wasn’t worried about going up to 650 , you might have misread that
@@barryc1635 my bad
Any update on the epoxy? How do I follow on social media?
@93turbocivic on Facebook…. The motor is running strong, I made a pass in the car and ran a 10.8 @135mph in it.
@@barryc1635 awesome. I'm doing the same epoxy with the fwd gear x top eliminator gearset.
@@chriscoatess3600 I’m using the Top Eliminator gears myself, I also used GearX ring gear and counter shaft as a upgrade
Pay the money to do Darton sleeves, don't be fooled by this junk.
