do what rangcrx said and every time i've had a motor torn apart and rebuilt i always drive about 100-200 miles keeping the rpm's low just to make sure everythings happy. the day after your 1st drive on the new motor let it sit and idle for a while and listen again. some times when things warm (expand) then cool (shrink) things get loose so i always like listen when its been fully cooled. i might be over kill but better to go over kill and be safe then not and have shit hit the fan.

sorry i can't help you with the tune on the honda, i'm about to have to fnd a place myself that'll work on a C30A.

good luck and enjoy the fresh motor
