A warped head is a warped head! If it's warped it'll be there and be obvious. Taking the thing apart would not cause this to happen spontaneously(Under normal circumstances, people surprised me these days)

I've been told by a number of people that they like turtles...............
^ hopefully you get the joke.
See the relevance here?

There is a budget build and a being so cheap I don't want to spend money and time and do things correctly causing me to have tons of problems and failures down the road build. You're doing the later, which I would advise you against however you are your own person and can do whatever you wish. Just remember we tried to help you.

Let us know how it works out for you!

if your doing a budget build that you dont want unforseen problems then take the engine out and put it on a stand. the term your looking for doing a rebuild in the vehicle is called a "in-frame" and no your block nor head will warp. you really think honda waits until the heads on to tq everrything? i would tell your mechanics and teachers to go back to training. the only way a block will be ****ed up is if you machine it wrong. for instance the v8 chevys need to have tq plates bolted to the head area to mimic a head tq being as the block shifts when tq'd. same as when you do a line bore on and engine.

my ls/vtec was just done a few months back, you remove the head and drop the pan. attempting the crank bearings is a pain and can damage main seals. but you can easily do the rods from bottom. you just can pull them assembly out from the bottom being that the piston wont fit past the mains. you have to take them from the top.

didn't you just replace your clutch? was still a pretty good run though... and for your camera mount, what camera are you using? if your using a digital camera like mine try the camera mount that i made. it's out of a headrest frame then welded a bar on it for camera mounting...

this is the only pic. i have of it that you can see the camera mount



doesn't look that fancy but does the job..

I got you man! It's a USRacing front lip made by Pancake Racing. They're pretty rare and hard to find.

Here's some more shots of it, these are OLD pics BTW. Hence the GSR blades and stickers y0 lol

I really don't like it. Maybe in due time but it's a cluster F to me.
My other friend has one in his car and to avoid having gauges has EVERYTHING you can think of on display. It gives me a headache to look at it.
