Default FINALLY VTEC a long wait!!

I have posted multiple times about the vtec nightmare I have been dealing with.I tride a crap load of trouble shooting and finally these are the results.

1.oil pump was bad.
2.head drill plug was missing
3.wrong wiring harness came with motor
4.missing 3 wires causing engine to throw codes
5.cracked cam

After it was all said and done we ran a quarter mile program on the dyno and the results were 13.69 and 13.78 which I was more than happy with.
Im not sure if these times will carry over to the track or not.I dont know if dynos figure in air resistance or things like that but either way I finnally have vtec
