Update:
They're a little bigger than what I wanted to use but they were only $180 picked up locally and were only used for about 4 hours of dyno tuning
Price list is updated

Update:
Valvetrain, and clutch should be here on friday. I dont know if I told you guys or not but I dropped my bottom end off at my machine shop to get the crank balanced and micropolished, pistons pressed on to the rods, and have the block cleaned and honed, all for $192 Thanks to Ray and his Dad( It helps to know the right people )
The only things I'm waiting on to finish the motor is the bearings and the LS/Vtec kit.

Re: (crxowner)
i hate to be the one to tell you but i have pretty much the same setup except i have a b18b bottem sleaved and bored to 85mm. any ways i have the same clutch and it sucks really bad. its in a new ITR tranny and it dosnt feel any thing like the act stage 2 clutch i had on my old b16, it just dosnt hold for ****. but good choice of cams and head stuff. i put down 201hp and 159fl/tq with my pro 1's. love em. good luck with the rest of the build.

Well that sucks, did you break it in and everything? Did you have a new flywheel or resurface the old one?
I'll see how this one does and if it slips an ACT stage 2 will go in.
I should be hitting the dyno sometime next week, unless something goes wrong

Re: (crxowner)
New parts came in today
Starting to get nervous because my block was supposed to be back last tuesday and of course it's not, I called today and they just started honing it, so we'll see what happens.

That fu*king sucks. Sorry to hear about.
Years ago, i was building an LS/V and my coupe got totalled. 3 months later, i had the white EG hatch that i still have to this day.
Hopefully something good will come of this!

Thanks, how long did it take you to get your money? I haven't decided if I want an EG hatch or another EK hatch, I guess it depends on how much they give me.
I'll keep you guys posted
BTW I ordered my ECU last night from John vega
(MTBER) he's a great guy and very informative

It was a real quick process, i want to say under 2 weeks. I had full coverage from All State and the other guy was drunk and rear ended me while he was going 30mph and i was sitting still at a stop light.
