Not bad at all for two hours.. looks like the Suzuki 90hp heads I got to pull off this past week at school.
Cars still give me the creeps though.... these heads and blocks and everything you're taking apart is about 90% the same as whats on these outboard motors.. ecspecially when I went into my Honda course a few months ago.. but im still tempted to take everything on my engine apart.. my luck with my car just stinks..
Oh yea.. Yamaha 5-star Certification awarded today FTWMFW!!11! | |

Not much difference between a Suzuki 90hp head and a Honda 127hp head I'll bet!
Motors are motors man, as long as they are OHC, piston/rod-based, instead of pushrod or wankels, they are pretty easy to work on. Congrats on the cert! | |

Looking good as always Foos. Do you still have to get it inspected or can it be thrown on the boat and shipped back?
I get to go deal with changing out my ****ing alternator. Weeeee! | |

Thanks Steve! You should probably change your sig on here though.....
It got inspected, failed, and then while it was torn apart in my driveway, it magically passed. Gotta love hookups! Trying to get in order to go the track one last time before she ships. I would love to change an alternator and be running again. | |

There's no point in putting a huge power mod on the car if it looks half-assed and dirty when you pop the hood. I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to stuff like that I guess. Quote:

Awesome clips. Seems like you've come a long way with everything. What's left? Besides the clutch. | |
