with jsgprod's help, i got the teg's engine out today, and the crank pulley bolt loosened on the other D16A1.

now i can move on to completely stripping both chassis, rewiring the CRX, replumbing the fuel system of the CRX, and redoing the water pump, timing belt, head gasket, oil pan gasket, and if need be, front main seal of the D16A1.

once all that stuff is done, i can install the D16A1, get the last few parts, tidy up loose ends and tag the car and drive it.

for the time being i will be using the HF tank with the teg pickup and pump. i plan on plumbing my own supply line, and using the HF supply line as a return line.

unless i can get an Si tank & lines for pretty cheap.


i am also using the teg's harness.
