f22b dohc built head

XTD is crap. That exact clutch is what put my cb7 out of commission (ended up being permanent, due to an unrelated incident). At the very least, use an oem throwout bearing. The xtd one will most likely seize on you.

B series cam gears? Why?

The H22 has FRM cylinder walls. Very delicate, and difficult if not impossible to repair when damaged. A scored cylinder wall may mean that block is useless without an expensive resleeve. If you’re interested in boost, now is the time to beef up that block for it.
If you’re building another block, I wouldn’t use parts that have been in a failed build. That used ring had seen the wrong end of a cylinder wall. I doubt it would seal properly.
Don’t cut corners on things that will be expensive or frustrating to correct if they fail.

the f22b uses pt2 cam gears and they are different from any f20b h23 h22 h23a1 yet they are the exact same tooth count as the b series. the b series cam gears are a tiny bit wider and might rub the plastic shield inside so im not going to run one

Interesting. I haven’t heard that before!

need over sized pistons

so I figured out the block need oversized pistons the other day so I thinking about going
12:1 aris pistons and cheap eBay rods

does anyone have any input ? most rods are made in the same factory overseas so I don't see the need to spend $$ for name brand ones

Are you planning on revving higher than the stock limit? If so, I’d avoid cheap rods.

would I be better off running the stock rods with arp 2000 rod bolts

I think we get the arp 2000 rod bolts from a gsr rite?

[deevergote]

Not sure about gsr bolts. I’ve never heard that before.
Honestly, neither stock nor cheap rods are a great idea, but i would probably feel more comfortable with stock rods and good bolts.

Honestly though, you’d be better off just getting quality forged rods if you want to rev high. The cost of the damage that would be done from a failed rod at high rpm will be much greater than the cost of just building it right the first time.

If you are getting pistons might as well get rods. hit up arias pistons they have 12:1 pistons also they can get you a deal on rods. Over all you are looking at atleast 1100$ for both befor machine work. Also arp makes rod bolts for the f22a/b. They are the ones you use for this motor. The bottom end is all f22a/b parts besides the pistons and lower timing cog. Everything else is all f22a/b.
