Many of you guys already know my old car setup
Now ONE DAY maybe it will finally be out of the body shop. With new panels and complete paint job.
Looking to pull the motor this week or so…
- Want to go over the motor and refresh bearings and rings.
- Got a brand new 04 recasting type R head
- Head is fully done with ferrea SS valves, valve springs, and retainers.
- Looking into hondata and OBD1 conversion
- Along with a new fuel system to meet my 600+ whp goals to trap 150 or so.
Got all kinds of new goodies gonna be on it this year. If all goes well …
I will keep you guys informed with pictures and info on the progress
