Well, as many of you may know, I popped the engine last September, and I have completed a rebuild of the engine. The problem was that I blew the rings on pistons 2 and 4. Rings went first, and then the top of piston #4 peeled off. This I think was the source of my lack of power. It’s all taken care of now. 😃

Here are a couple of photos. More to come when I can get them off my phone. haha.

Inside:

Eagle H-beam Rods  
JE Pistons 8.5:1 compression 87mm (1mm overbore)  
Clevite Main bearings  
Clevite Rod Bearings  
Clevite Thrust Bearings  
Polished crank  
Balanced Rotating assembly, including rods and pistons  
Decked Head and Block  
Valve cleanup jobby, new seats etc etc.

Apparently it is now a 2.1L. So I guess SR21Det? lol

Break-in was a real pain in the ass. I really wanted to mash on it, but had to wait 1000km. Finally made it there, and just got it tuned up a little bit better this week.

It finally runs really strong, and holds nicely at 19psi. Scared to go any higher. lol. More tuning to come, and more pics to come.

I thought you had to re-sleeve when you went anything bigger than 86.5mm pistons?

Looks good though. Nothing like fresh hot tanked aluminum huh? Looks soo fresh.

No, not at all. There are plenty of guys that run .050" overbores without problems. I’m currently at .040" overbore, which gives me some room to play. Plus, if the walls do cave, I’ll just have that much better of a story to tell 😉

Anytime. I can’t wait to make sure these injectors are good to go, advance some timing, lean it out, and nail it. Sorry, but no Honda will be on this thing 😉 But I will be more than happy to come for a ride. lol.
