Yes they do fit but you must trim down the rod. This has been covered a lot in the all motor forum. Look under LS/VTEC

CRX / EF Civic Forum Rules | Trial User info « » 1:45 PM 12/13/2002 Reply Edit

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. before posting in ANY forum, you should read the terms of service.
https://honda-tech.com/zerohelp?topic=tos

2. we have a pic post thread for posting any and all pics of your car. there are some rules for that thread, though:
- everyone gets one post and only one post to put all their pics into. you can put as many pics in that post as possible or as many as the post will allow.
- the very first post lists all the people who have posted in the thread and what pages their posts are on. if you search for your username in the list, you can see what page your pics are on. i also included the link to each page.

if you do post a pic of your vehicle or a part of your vehicle in a thread, it will be moved to the appearance forum.


3. no FS (For Sale)/WTB (Would Like To Buy or Where To Buy) ads in the forum. there is a MARKETPLACE forum for a reason. Please note that trial users will have to wait 20 days (see trial user FAQ below) before posting in the classifieds thread.


4. no meet posts. if you do, it will be moved to the events/meet forum. if you want a huge gathering, contact a mod to have it made sticky in the events/meet forum.


5. any posts with open polls will be change to a closed poll. people here on h-t can't seem to keep themselves in line with open polls and must add stupid choices to the poll.


6. if you plan on posting a new topic try the search first. it has more than likely been covered before. a link to the search function is below.
https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch. remember to search in the archived as well as recent topics. if the search doesn't work well for you, try to post a specific topic so we all here can answer your questions quickly and correctly.

7. threads that ask "what should I sell my CRX/Civic for?" or "how much is my CRX/Civic worth?" are not allowed and will be deleted. [added on 9/8/06]

8. If a thread is not Tech related in any shape manner or form, it does NOT belong in the EF forum especially if it is not EF related or it is yet another "which one is better EF or X car" or "EF> X car". Should I trade/sell/buy Car X for Car Y. [added on 11/15/06]

and there is something else you could try see the red underlined word in the top right hand corner

edit nevermind toad took care of it

You need to machine the rod or the piston. We do the pistons, as Honda intended.

You mill the pin boss wider, just like a LS piston.
