My new toy.

Couple more parts showed up today. Only thing left is my new header.

Skunk2 intake manifold and 70mm throttle body and a Mishimoto slim fan mount kit.

And a little something that I have been working on. Yes it is a replica.

Snapped a quic pic of the finished valve cover. Once it fully cures, I will post sunlight pics. I am pleased at the result. Still have to finish sanding the letters.

Pre-assembly and mocking up the new intake manifold.

Block and head bolted together. Still have to put one more coat of paint on the block.

My Innovative front motor mount bracket will be in tomorrow. I also need to consider either relocating my IAT sensor or change my fuel rail. With the stock fuel pressure regulator being in the center of the fuel rail, it's sitting directly on top of the IAT sensor to the point that I can't plug it in. I am also having to fabricate brackets for the Civic radiator and have to find someone to make me a 2.75" donut gasket flange for the cat side of the exhaust.

Doing a great job there keep adding pics .

Thanks man. Doing my best. I can only work on it a little at a time due to lack of tools and family time.

Got the motor in and everything tightened down. Still have to do valve lash and bolt on a few more things. Tomorrow will be front brakes and the rest of the motor and hoping to start on the rear suspension.

Damn double post

This may be a reason why I'm not getting any fuel to my engine. :/

Car runs. Still have a few things to knock out. Gonna be a while before it hits the road.

Thanks man. It's slow but progressing.

Repainted my valve cover and threw it on. I have a fuel leak at injector #4 which will be addressed very soon. It should be on the road shortly after the 15th of this month. Here are a couple new pics.

Had to get some of my exhaust repaired due to being so low. My HKS rear section was almost destroyed.

Everything is repaired and bolted up. Had to weld a new donut gasket flange onto my cat since my header has a 2.75" collector.

In the process of uploading a clip of the exhaust in case anyone has been wondering what the HKS system sounds like. I will post it momentarily.

Anything new?

On hiatus for a little bit. It'll be on the road soon though hopefully. I just need a new header and a few other things. Started tinkering with boost but haven't gotten far.

A few updates. Car will be on the road today.

Yeah, just a little one. Car is in pieces in my garage. I started parting it out and didn't get far. Gonna change up a few things and get it on the road.

Gonna update this thread soon. Reassembling the car and throwing it back on the road.
