Default Update on the civic

As some of you know I have been building my 2000civic ex since I blew my B18c in Aug. Well as of now I am hoping to put the motor back in this weekend. I am proud to say that I turned every bolt in the build up.(lets hope it runs) It is Darton Sleeved, eagle rods, je pistons, full Skunk2 valvetrain. I have the motor fully assembled all I have to do is adjust the valves and wait for my buddy to pick up my jdm valvecover tom. I have also installed gsr rear disc and took off my body kit and sold the 18's. I am looking for some 16" c8's right now in bronze. I am going with stock bumpers and a Si lip. The motor is built for turbo and I am putting together parts right now but I am going to break the motor in for the next month then park it for the winter and put the turbo on. Sorry for the long post but I am ecited. I am going for 450 horse and I am very confident that I can get it on race gas. Thanks for all your help guys. This ones on me

just make sure you get the upgraded rod bolt for the eagles. they are known to brak rod bolts with the smaller bolts.the go from thick at the threads to thin in the center to thick by the head. they are not thick all the way down. just a heads up for you.
