just wondering how did you get your block so clean?

rEM2

Such a nice car! How long did it take you to swap the k24 in it, and it seems like you did all the motor building yourself, nice job!

Well when the motor was on the engine stand we took out the handy enamel engine paint and put a fresh coat of paint on it.I also used a silicon base time of spray you spray everywhere in the engine bay and it looks all shiny , i got my stuff at my local auto detailing place . It took use about a month and a half to do the swap . Allot of waiting for part form honda.

so you didnt sand blast it that clean or anything you just painted it

Nicholasel

Well i bought 2 cans of paint stripper and sprayed it clean then sanded it for about 4 hour and then brought it back to the body shop to have it painted.

You only have one header, bud. It's not a multi-bank engine.

SHG_James

what tires were you running in the first drive video?

Nicholasel

The first video i was ruining my 18 inch wheels with General Exclaims on them.The car was not street tuned or Dyno tuned when we took it out for a drive. I got another set of wheels , they are showed about this post . The are 17 inch with Nitto Neogen tiers and the Nitto do not break lose like my 18 inch wheels did in second gear.

Nicholasel

Well got a few parts since the last time i was on here , i got Hyubrid chain tensoner cause my stock one was gone , Hondadta manifold gasket and some nice shift linkage stuff from Hybrid to.

Nicholasel

Well i finally decided to get the old EL painted and looking new again .
