Phat dude. I think it'll be bitchin with everything you've got runnin. I wish I could do an install like that. Only problem is I don't have anywhere to store the motor for a long period of time. Keep it up.

I hate painting blocks black just for that reason. Leaks are harder to spot. Technically I think if you paint any aluminum block, you'd hinder heat dissipation seeing as the paint would insulate the block. If you have an adequate colling system it shouldnt even be an issue anyway. I actually think it will look cool.

Well... I got head.
Then after curing a minor whoopsie that was a pain in the *** to fix (I realized when I got the head back the pistons were 180 degrees off.... had punch the rods and pistons back out, flip the piston over on the rod then put the bottom end back together. Major pain.) For future reference, the narrow valve reliefs are for the INTAKE, and the wide ones are for the EXHAUST.
Now its ready to rock
It got head
TDCed and Belted
Ladies and Gentlemen.... Its built. Just the minor things left to close up... the water block, the accessories, etc... then its ready to drop in the car and cause some serious surprises.
For anyone who asks.... I have absolutely no clue how much it cost me, I bought stuff over a period of time, and I have no idea exactly what it all cost, so I'm going to guess the head parts (cam, VS&R, valves and studs) was about $1000, the bottom end parts were another $1100, I do know I spent about $850 at Majestic Honda and it was another $713 in machining costs (bore/hone, deck, 3 angle VJ, new exhaust seals, head cleanup, install valvetrain). I think I spent about $250 on various specialty tools and ****. Beyond that, I dont remember.
For anyone who tries it, the nickel and diming is the same as turbocharging. The little stuff adds up. Honda bearings are around $6 for mains, of which you need 10, and around $5 for rods (of which you need 8), I think I bought almost $180 in gaskets and seals, then there's some sensors and **** you may as well pick up because they're a pain to install once its together, etc.... **** adds up. Make sure you account for this before you start and run out of money.
The thank yous.... (if I forget, I'll think of it later)
Andy ... for answering my stupid questions
Gerry ... for building me top notch **** and answering stupid questions
Edwin ... future thanks for letting me use the shop
Adam (who isn't on this forum) ... for D-series knowledge and building help
Visa ... for funding the whole thing

Looks great, man. NP on the help, you know I'm around and you have my number. Again, glad you found that things weren't straight before you cranked it. You know, better to do a little more work at no cost now than to blow **** up and spend all that money over again. Congrats, can't wait to see how it performs. You may have mentioned, what cam are you running? Stage II, right?
