Default Saving the SOHC

So here's the story, recently my brother in law received a white hatchback with a b18b motor, and he decided to pull out the LS motor and put it into his race car to race in Honda challenge. He is giving me the white hatch and i am going to eventually buy the car off of him. So in replacement of the LS a d16z6 will take its place. The d16z6 came from a black automatic EJ and is pretty beat up. The car was given to him through a family friend. The car hasn't been running for 3 years but surprisingly when he came to pick it up it started right up. That's a Honda for you. On with the pics


Here is the car. sorry for the bad photography skills


And here is the donner


We found this little guy over the thermostat


SOHC REMOVED!


Time for the LS


Empty


and at the end of the day 2 shells

I plan to get this project finished by the end of this week and i'll also get pics of the race car after.

yeah thats right, LS went into a Honda Challenge car and the d16 will have a 5speed tranny with a close 4th gear and 4.4 final drive. and the engine runs fine may need a little TLC.
