All Motor Bucket Build
Hopefully you guys dont flame me to death for this but I could use some pointers. First, a little background. Started off with a sleeved turbo GSR back in the day (Circa 2001) and now I have this little 527whp 2G DSM project going on http://www.swordfishGSX.8m.com . I've always wanted to build an all motor honda setup so now I'm gonna give it a whirl and the parts are starting to pile up. Keep in mind, very simple, very cheap, very noisy. I'll be happy with 185whp and **** my pants if it makes more.
I trying to do this with all stock parts internally as well as stock head and cams. We have 101 available at the pumps where I live so dont freak when you see the piston choice. The car will be driven on the street but only when I feel like. It doesnt need to be comfortable in any way shape or form... only half *** streetable. Emphasis on the half ***. It's gonna be an LS/VTEC mainly because I already have the block, crank and rods. So here's the run down.
EG Hatch - Light like a sumbitch
I'll do all machine work and assembly
LS block and crank
LS rods
ARP rod bolts
Bearings? You tell me. ACL, Honda? What?
CTR Pistons
OEM 3 layer headgasket
GSR head
Probably GSR cams... but I dont have cams yet so suggestions are appreciated
Skunk2 intake... I already have one lying around
P72 ECU
VAFC.... I should do something better but unless an S200 falls from the sky it aint gonna happen
3??cc injectors... whatever I find in the classified section
Fake J's intake? Dont really know. But they seem to work and are affordable
Throttle body? Ummm a big one?
No idea what header but I'm willing to spend $600-$700 max
I'll fab my own traction bars, exhaust and other little knick knacks
So what am I missing other than the obvious like water pump, oil pump etc? Thanks for any suggestions and sorry for the rookie style post. I figured this was the best way to gain info. And yes, I have searched and read the archives, read import review and followed lots of buildups on the board. Thanks for your time.
