cheaper to buy an already swapped car *shameless plug* and I'd love a reason to visit aiken/colummbia/rock hill

most people have followed my build thread as to what all is done. so for those of you slackers or newbs that don't know....here you go:

head:
port-n-polish
delta 272./272 cam *bout 2 ship stock cam out, currently has a 272/260 that i'm sellin to a friend*
new dx outer springs
fresh valve job
shaved .015
new oem honda seals/gaskets

block:
bored .040" over for 75mm ycp vitara pistons and hasting chrome rings
shaved .015"
currently fitting 7/16-14 arp head studs in it...bout to order the stud kit today
stock rods machined for floatin wrist pin style pistons
new king pro main and rod bearings and thrust bearings
oil pan tapped for turbo
using a felpro d16a1 headgasket...cometic was leaking

the intake manifold is port matched, and a b18 throttle body has been fitted on the upper plenum and ported out as much as possible

the cdm hf manifold has been port matched, and a 38mm wastegate flange is in the middle section and a t3 flange is welded to the bottom. just had both flanges resurfaced since ive been blowin out wastegate gaskets left and right.

lots of money in machine work, parts and i used all OEM honda seals, orings, gaskets. i currently have on order a new water pipe, orings and the 2 hoses for the cooler so i can change those out since mine has a couple of the ports rusting away at the tips.
i have receipts of everything i've done to the motor minus the p&p, and custom welding since my buddy did that for me.

i also have a aem cam gear and awaiting a UR crank pulley as well.

thanx







the motor itself has around 4k on it. i'll have to add everything up. got a stack of receipts to go thru. smile.gif

well this is true. but i did it for the sake of sticking with the stock motor for originality. its a pretty nasty motor and i'm actually doin a lil more work to it. its gettin a new set of arp head studs and bout to have a bigger cam and already put on a UR udp. and the 4g mount kit wouldn't do me no good anyways as far as what u have........

i was thinking you could get the motor with the mounts and trans sell the mounts on ebay and get some of your money back at least 200 you would then have a gsr motor with a trans for proly around 700 thats a good deal and a sweet set up but i'm down with the dirty d i would do a sohc vtec swap make my own mounts it's lighter parts are way cheaper and with a turbo even at 5 psi on the stock internals you would bust most b series ASS there was a gallery on here where the dude shows ever step of the process but i can't find it now it don't look that hard he should make the mounts to order and sell them here in the vendor forum
