Thanks for all the kind comments. I have to take the block back to the machine shop to get it notched for the H beams. They hit on the sohc if you dont notch them. like an 1/8 th of an inch. Hopefully will have the motor closed up by Friday and start breaking her in, as well as getting the piping made.

BTW I'm not sure if I understand the concept behind the rep points. In terms of giving and accepting. REP POINTS FOR ALL OF YOU

Not when doing it like this. Sleeving, building the head and forged internals are all close to B prices, but when it's a single stick... it's just plain kewler.

with all honesty it was still cheaper than a B. I actually had a B series swap. I sold it and it funded the build. I have about 1400 into the motor and thats including purchasing it and the way its sets now. Granted I got some monster deals that enabled that, but still much much cheaper than a B series build. If I had to do it again I would have spent at least 1-2 grand more. I just caught the right deals at the right time.

Well im trying to have it done for the crx meet at old towne, but realistically I would say Early January.

PICS of the turbo, manifold, dump tube, and wastegate have been updated in the gallery.
