It's normal but something like what it sounded like mine is not. My calculation didn't exactly work out like l have figured. I might exceeded the piston to wall clearamce (out of specs). But l will show it on following episode were the engine is in normal operating temperature and you hardly hear it.
It goes on every engine not only G23, piston to wall clearance must be w/in specs. Like this turbo build, l purposely decided to have a 0.0025" piston to wall clearances coz of the piston material will expand under boost. But now l know it should be lower than that. Always follow piston manufacturer p2w clearances specs.
Its not knocking its vibrations causing that “ knocking “ sound idk if he on e85 but e85 causes that especially because of his pistons usually has a lil piston slap but eventually the heat will expand it and bring the sound down especially on his first start up!
Very nice job bro 👍
Thanks karnal!
looking sick man! you make this look way easy and smooth hahaha
I wish l could count how much hair l got left man! Thanks
Volvió con más fuerza 🎉❤
We'll see how it'll perform on dyno. Thank you
Makes me look forward to getting mine going! Love it, and I can't wait to see more of it
Glad you enjoyed it! I'm planning to do more testing soon.
Great work bro!!
Thanks my friend and we'll see how it perform soon.
I like your build kuya
Yeahhh beybihhhh!
now imagine it repainted metallic midnight green 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
It'll be another "50 shades of green" hahaha! Thanks brother and kinda like that lol!
Great work what ur think the number going to put in.
Not shooting on hi numbers coz of the block not resleeve. I'll be happy above 300+
i realy enjoy your videos ! keep up the good job !
the spinning turbine at the end was the final touch ! 🤌
👌Glad you enjoyed it and l really appreciate the support.
Cant wait to see it on the dyno! Whats your goals for minimum power for this and at what psi
I made a mistake of not resleeving the block and the plan is just 300+ . No more than that otherwise it wont last long. 320 and l'll be satistfied.
@@sagittnet2158 being that the k20 and the f23 were built off the same design. The f23 still wont hold much??
@builtntuned6513 yes, k is much superior motor.
@@sagittnet2158 thats crazy! :o i thought it was all same material :(
also question is this a full g23bk engine or just the head on a f series block? because if so i wanna do the same
It's G23, f23 block, crank, rods and H22 cyl head.
@@sagittnet2158I found your Chanel a few weeks ago and I’m So happy I’m doing a g23 build rn to and your videos are the best ones out there.
@sethowen3728 Glad that you find my channel useful and good luck on your build. Thanks
Hello! Where did you get that gauge holder for the oil, oil temp etc?
Ebay, try search 96 Civic center gauge pod and multiple pods will show.
Is piston slap normal for G23? I've been wanting to build one for my prelude G23 VTEC

what turbo kit is this????
It's DIY turbo manifold and Pulsar Gtx3582r
What is that knocking?

It's a piston slap, it goes away after when engine goes to normal temp. I just got than adjusting the valve lashes.
no AC! id rather be NA and be comfy
Yes no a/c but it's still able to put a/c if want to.
@sagittnet2158 I know it was just a joke. Nice work brother!
@@BCBjcewA hahaha, got me there man. I was about to say l got 4 windows lol!
