First, you don't need a new crank. The engine immediately stalls when you hydro-lock since water cannot be compressed. This means that the engine doesn't run with a bent rod or anything. Because of this the crankshaft isn't scored or unbalanced.

Second, if you have all the tools, a D series motor is easy to work on and or pull if needed. I've gotten the motor out in under an hour using nothing but jacks and jack stands. The motor is easy to disassemble as well. A couple of head studs and the head comes off. A couple of bolts and the oil can drops out. Easy access.

Third, parts for a D series are very very cheap. You can find them around anywhere. You can even pick up a new motor for $300 or a block for $150, thus would debunk the purpose of putting new rods in.

In conclusion, it's a old Honda. Potential buyers are either going to A: strip it out, B: throw in a different motor.

So I would appreciate it if you're not interested in the car, DON'T POST. Not everyone selling a car is a nitwit illegal alien with a grill full of Altezzas.

Thanks..... and it's a 5 speed.
