Well, the plan is a LS block with GSR pistons, GSR flywheel, and oil squirters. The manifold will be aftermarket either Skunk, Edelbrock, or OBX. Whether or not I use the GSR crank and rods is yet to be decided. Since the motor is prolly going into the CRX, I don't need much low end torque, so lotsa high end would be better supported by GSR rod and stroke. There's something about a rebuilt motor where you know it's not going to break at the worst possible moment because who knows what the previous owner did.
Rob, mild build? If you call a 175hp GSR motor in a 87 CRX mild, I guess so.
Head work is pricey. But I do know the local master in Aberdeen. Robert Oliver is his name. Do you need a GSR intake manifold? I have one F/S or trade (shown below, low miles). I also have an OBD II dizzy.
I'm getting sick of using this head as a footstool, so I want to get moving on it, but I gotta get my Civic running for winter first. I'll keep ya posted.
