***UPDATE***
engine is in
shift linkage is in
if i didn't tell you already they tried to scam me on the radiator
ordering the Brian Crower 2.25l stroker kit (11.6:1 compression)next month and assembling that before its dropped in there.
ordered F1 stage 2 street disk clutch
ordered aluminum lightweight 7lb fidanza flywheel
ordered my 99-00 EK Civic cf hood
once i get the stroker, clutch, and flywheel installed i'm dropping the engine in w/ it's lightweight pulleys and ha motorsports engine mounts. gonna be tuned w/ a p28 ecu and Hondata. got about 2-3 months infront of me b4 i'm an EK Sol w/ a stroked b18c1. but it should be pretty quick when it gets dropped in.

future plans:
paint job of course
volk gt-5 gold rims (16 or 17x8 in front andregular trim in theback prolly)
set of 272 cams paired w/ skunk 2 internals to allow me to rev up to and past 9k rpm's (10k max i'm told) (1mm oversized valves, 3 angle valve job, port and polish)
45mm ITB kit.
after all of this is done i'm having a wire tuck done and i'll be done w/ her. should be prettttttty damn fast when this apx 250+whp car is done.
also THINKING of putting a 50 or 75shot of nitrous (don't worry, i will be taking every precaution to ensure it's safe) for those big races.
aftermarket oil cooler, koyo or fludyne radiator... pretty much everything i can do to keep this engine as cool and safe running as possible.

 

nitrous. they way to go! sounds great ron, i wish you the best of luck man.

thanks Gus . just an estimate... w/ the fully built engine and as light as i can get the car w/ CF all over... what kind of HP do you think i'll be able to put down w/ that 2.25l?
