you bastard..lol, do you think i should just keep going fixing up this engine?

 

I see many people boosting motors with that many miles on it. Do a compression test and a leakdown test, that will give you a better idea of the motors health.

 

You put 73k in 2 years????WOW..i waould say compression test, and leakdown test to start off if everything checks good then why not and liek nors said i see alot...read about alot of people boostin and building on high mileage motors.

 

I threw on a skunk2 IM, ctr intake cam, skunk2 cam gears, a new header, test pipe, exhaust, different intakes......all around 150+k. I currently have 188k on my motor and its still running like a champ. I was planning on rebuilding it, but I already started building a seperate motor.

 

whats up with the rebuilt engine?...(sorry noob here)

so is it changing ALL the internals?....like the crank, rods, pistons, vavletrain,?...is it cheaper rebuilding the engine from the ground up?..or just buy a new motor?

 

so 140k is ok for me to keep going?????

 

my DA has 240,000 miles on it and still running strong i just got new parts like water pump,thermostat, timing belt, clutch, axles, and a new radiator and it runs like a champ, 140k is baby miles for a honda motor do what you want

Like nors said, do a compression and leakdown test. Then you'll know the answer.

 

I have over 200k on the clock and am spraying a dry 75 shot. Have a motor lined up, already. I should push it to see how long it will last
