you'll be fine, I'd recommend to get the journals polished and knife edged the crank though while it's out

Dont knife edge it. First off thats an old school trick to make it cut through the oil quicker. Hondas dont cut through oil. Second off, your just gonna make the crank weaker...not a good thing. Also on the top end of a turbo car, some counter weight or just rotaional mass is not a bad thing. Weight will actually help keep the car moving on the top end.

Just get it micropolished and balanced...thats it

kinda OT but anyone know what a new crank would run? I'm looking for a h23 crank. Also how much is a usual balance and micro polish job? I just need a rough estimate. Trying to lay out some plans.
