allright i know some things about civics but i got some questions... do any civics have aluminum blocks? if so what years? also what is the crank, the rods, and pistons made out of? and what years are they made of these things....im working on a project and need to know this..

 

also when the piston is at top dead center is it level with the end of the block? and when the piston fully recede's back down into the block how far is it from top dead center? thanks
