Hey Honda Tech;
I have not ever posted on this site before and just wanted to introduce myself and also tell what I am currently working with. I own a 1997 civic cx with an ls swap. My motor is currently out of my car and I am working on a straight LS-T build. Here is my build so far.

Block
Darton Dry Sleeves std. bore
Weisco 9:1 Pistons
Eagle Rods
Acl Bearings
New OEM water pump
New OEM oil pump
Cometic Head Gasket
ARP Headstuds
ARP Rod Bolts

I am currently working on the head now. The only thing I have right now are supertech dual valve springs. I am looking at Supertech retainers and going with BC stage two turbo cams. I am planning on using the stock valves. I also just got a fresh port and polish on the head.

I want to boost and get around 500-525whp. This is the setup I am looking at and want to know if my power goals are possible.

3076r
blackworks top mount manifold?? anyone using these and are they good??
injector dynamics 1000cc on e85
Walbro 255
Aem Fuel Rail and also Fuel Pressure Regulator
hondata s300 for sure
mishimoto front mount
70mm throttle body
intake manifold not sure what kind yet?? any suggestions.

As far as tranny goes I was just going to use stock ls tranny but put a MFactory lsd in it. Will that tranny be ok??


I am sure I am forgetting something so feel free to ask me anything. Thanks a lot guys and I would love to have some input on this build.

WTF? 1 post in 2 years? I'm surprised you still remember your username/password.


As for your question... .LS transmission is fine, but the gears are really long, so it'll affect acceleration, but with higher horsepower it doesn't matter all that much unless you're drag racing.
