You know after all that trouble you could buy a whole sohc vtec engine and tranny for under 500.

I think the only way this would be worth doing is if its a vtec head with major porting, polishing, upgraded valvetrain, etc etc.....and even then I'm sure you'd have to upgrade some parts of the bottom end..
