Re: Head build, which route to go? v-tec? or a big cam? D16A6

Boosting it is definitely an option down the road, but I'm doing the head first since it seems to be having some issues. Is it possible to run a bigger cam without having to reprogram the fuel maps?...

Re: 1990 Civic SI No start after timing belt replacement.

Yes but if it was just slightly bent wouldn't it still hold some compression? An then slowly burn through the valve seat? It runs really good but I can hear a tick and it will sputter under load....
