I have 2 questions

1. I just recieved my ge blockguard today and it doesnt fit. It has extra space on one side but the other is tight. Is it worth triming it down. My dumb *** already has the bottom end assembled with bore and hone. I dont want to have to tap it and have egg-shapped cylinders. What should i do? Is it worth it to try to make it fit?

2. I will have an ls/vtec turbo setup and am wondering what ecu to run. I dont really want to rev that high because of the horror stories and plus i want to have it last and run right. what rpm will the p28 redline at. I think it somewhere around 7200 but not sure. Also is there any way around getting the knock sensor removed. and no i dont have hondata ( i got emanage) to turn it off.

thanks

well if you have a p28 from a dseries like it sounds like you do since you quoted a 7200rpm revlimit, you won't have a ks enabled because those motors don't have ks's to begin with!

what to do?

sell the block guard and put it together.

Get rid of the blockguard it really serves no purpose!!!

thanks for the blockguard info. Thats what im prolly gonna do. But ive heard two things on the p28 ecu. I have heard it revs to 6800 and 7200. Also how much is it to chip a p28? Can it be completley custom to my liking?

just do a search for Uberdata....whoever does those can program it exactly to your specs

so....what are the stock specs of the p28???? Also how much does one go for. This kid i know said he would sell me his for 400 and i told him he is smokin crack. i was thinkin they go for like 50 or around there.

OBD1 P28 is 7200.

take a piece of sand paper and file away at the side thats too tight. it says right on the package that it may need to be machined. it also should be about 1/4" below the deck

If i do that is there still a risk of egg-shaped cylinders. I just assembled the bitch and am not gonna do another bore/hone deal, besides if i have to bore, then my new pistons will be useless. But i am still debating if i should sand it down or not. just seem risky to me.
