it may be the angle at which the picts were taken, but the exhaust ports look like lopsided circles.......bad IMO

my goal is a 14 second SOHC non-vtec N/A (there's a lot of attributes to that one) civic, and then I will be happy to say I have a decently fast car.

I wanna see the gains from an N/A ported DH head. N/A porting is where you will see the difference in quality. It's much easier to port for FI.

Glad too see you finally got your head back and i cant wait too see the car running. lol andrew yea 0-60 isnt my strong point in sub 30deg. weather on the street lol (3/4 throttle wheelspin till 60). Once my foot heals i wanna run you again with your new transmisiion, my boost is back up to 10psi now instead of 7psi and hopefully it will be warm out and if it is ill have traction most of the time

I dropped the head off at Accelerated autosports today. They were realy impressed at how much work went into it. They said that most shops dont go that deep into the port and that DH pollished every inch of the port, there was no ruff spots to be found anywhere.

Congrats on the head- mine is done and waiting for me to pick it up (installed) from a guy who did the work for me while I was away on spring break.
Had the clutch plate put on too.
The quality is great from DH, hope that people are not getting too pissy like some of the posts have sounded about having to wait, they were great when I sent mine out, just be patient if you are waiting!
Hey anyone need a stock head????

Mine is on but having a little prob w/ boost spikes now- either reading at 5 or 8 psi when 8 is where I want it- it is really crappy out today to tune plus really run it w/ the ground wet so it sucks for me
One thing though is that all the car wants to do is boost w/ all of the air in it now- something I have to get used to I guess...

u sent your cam gear with the head? WHy the hell would u do that?

edit: NVM, i just realized why. So we will be getting a used cam also? Not to sure I could go for that considering I don't know how many miles on our the head I would be getting when mine only has 13k.

I know that the head I recieved back was my own b/c mine was damaged a few years back when I blew my engine the first time and Josh had mentioned how much work was needed to get everything right.
