Heheheh, yeah I would always fight the timing belt back on Avery, cursing Honda engineers the whole time. Gotta love it!

Someone on d-series.org pointed out something very crucial that I did during the assembly though. I lubed both sides of the main and rod bearings when I put them in. Not supposed to do this. Gotta pull the bottom end back apart this morning and fix that little mistake!

Re: Rebuild Time - Motor is Back in! (Pg. 165) - The Speedfoos' Turbo Thread!!
No. That's where the stock oil pressure sensor is. If you T-in another signal wire to an aftermarket gauge, it will screw up your car because the ECU will see additional load on the circuit, think something is ****ed up and throw the car into limp mode or worse. You need to get a T-fitting that screws into where the stock sensor plugs in and run an additional oil pressure sending unit off it.

Re: Rebuild Time - Motor is Back in! (Pg. 165) - The Speedfoos' Turbo Thread!!
Hey, looking good. That damn manifold is still a pain in the *** huh. I wasnt quite on the money I guess, sorry bout that. Can you give me a rough length on the runners from flange to flange, I may be able to finese the next ones incase the next person is not quite as mechanically inclined as yourself. Do you think it might have helped to swap out the studs in the head for bolts?

Thanks Gerry! No big deal on the fitment. I was a little put out when it didn't drop right in, but it only took about 45 minutes of fiddling around to get things straight. I'll get the measurements for you tomorrow since I'm deadass tired tonight. Even with the switching to bolts, you still have had to put the thing in piecemeal. Biggest thing is to take about 1/2" off those runners, she would have cleared the cables, AC and PS lines just fine. That and recommending folks change out the bottom heater hose to avoid it coming in contact with bottom of the IM. The only extra I will have to come up with is the heater hose. It's really tight at the back of it, but should be all right.

No probs Gerry. I hope I didn't come across as being unhappy with the mani in any way. I love it and the things I had to tweak to make it fit were very minor and not anything I'm going to worry about.

I thought I was a clean freak when tearing **** apart....jesus clint that engine is shinney as ****!! I spent at least 5 hours cleaning my engine bay and block when I had the head off and it still doesn't look as bling blingy as yours!

I hope my KMS intake manifold goes smoother than that....but I guess our stock intake manifold is not easy either

Baby's engine bay gets a wash every time I wash my car so she stays nice and clean. Plus about once a year I attack the block and tranny with a wire brush and steel wool to keep things clean. I'm a little obsessive/compulsive when it comes to cleaning stuff....
