Damn, that's some bad luck right there. Were you told that the motor was in good running condition? Thats pretty shady, bent valves and a knocked rod if so...

 

yea i was told it ran "strong" before it was pulled out. lol. This swap has been a nightmare. Im curious as to what kind of numbers i will put down on the dyno and at the track. hopefully around 190-200whp and low 13's High 12's with slicks and lsd

 

pic is up

 

that sucks, i had a similar scenerio, bought a short block wasn't told it was decked to hell, installed pistons then realized the pistons flats came out the block

 

with bigger cams you're looking around 200whp.

bigger than the hsl or bigger than stock???

im just running the stocks right now b/c i got some of those XS Power cams and the expletiveing keepers did not fit into either cam. I've heard some bad things about those cams. but anyhow....im getting it tuned with crome and maybe swap out the jdm intake for a aem cai. i have one in my back seat right now. im just gonna compare the two and i will go from there

LMFAO, i giggled at this ..
get rid of the ***** intake u wont make any power.. get a true 3'' intake with a vstack.
secondly..get rid of those cams, get some itr cams or some stage 2's..
car will make 180~190 depending on dyno.. and u i hope u mean pr3's..ur compression isn't that high so i wouldn't get blitzed on which cam to get.

 

jp we're gonna have to run my ls/vtec build is almost done. and im hoping to put down right at 200whp. and looking for high 12s. good thing is i already got a set of HSL's

PR3 is corrected mrs mckee and can i step out of english class to go take a **** or do you want to come hold it for me.im glad you giggled at this. some people dont have the knowledge that mr all mighty type r has. i just asked an opinion. this is why honda-tech has the reputation of "dick-head infested" (if this offends you then you're.....yep you guessed it). i like hondatech but its guys like you that make me ask questions on another forum

right now im running stock DA suspension on my EF and the machine shop at my moms work are going to make metal washers instead of the rubber washer for the bars that go through the front cross member downt ot he lower control arms suppose to slow wheel hop. also running a b16 tranny with a welded diff. for now i was juts going to buy a set of steelies and run a 22" slick on them.

i think it would be close. your roughly 11.3:1 im 12.2:1 cept you got more ported head over my factory ctr port job. might be able to breath better top end over me. and we're also running same pistons cept are 81.50

First off, search my name..i've done more then help people in your situation and given well used advice, i dont claim or act like i know everything.. Your the one using XS cams. Off brand **** such as this being sold on ebay or anywhere else w/o correct test, you should know better then this, reguardless if your new to it or not. Trust me "kiddo" When i first came on this site.. i was busted and beaten, and rightfully so. I devoloped a thick skin and took the words of more experince people and learned from them, now i do the same.. your a moron if you think otherwise.. (if this reply is offensive.. Please..shove it up your ***)

I understand you probably have helped alot of people but this isnt some highschool in the 70's. just b/c you got raped for not knowing something about your car or someone elses doesnt mean you have the right to bash me. i take constructive criticism very well and i take "LMAO i giggled when i saw this" as an insult and unneccessary.since you help everybody i figured you would have saw the post in the same thread before yours on the XS power cams?? i said that i am not running them and they are bad cams(basically). I will be sure to pick up a velocity stack and try that

i think huy said id be running 11.5:1 something like that b/c the head was milled. yea man i cant wait to see your setup. when are you going to get it tuned?i think im gonna run 22s as well . I'm sure you will get me at the track but it should be a good run. are you going to IFO on the 20th?! after this im thing of picking up a 4dr gsr and go turbo for another project.

well i got everything on my motor done except i need an oil pump, water pump, and timing belt.

I hadn't ben driving to my truck due to a medical condition still have 2 months till im suppose to be able to drive again but the guy i worked with that brought me to work just recently quit so i gotta fix my truck. tires. bumper, grill, window, insurance, before i sink any more money into my car. i doubt ill make it this month. I got a chip burner now so mid next month prolly i can burn a ITR map for it so i can atleast start it and make sure i dont have any leaks or problems with my wiring then save for my tune. then we can run them i think itll all come down to driver mod
heck i never ran a car on slicks before. but we'll see what happens.

 

sounds like you're very close man. i think we are gonna be the only all motor hondas/hatches in the triangle area.Mike said he didnt know anyone else running a quick all motor setup. im sorry to hear about that man. im riding with someone to work right now and i have to get my car running by feb 18th i start my new job at goldenpass lng in sabine pass. ill def have some money to sink into my car then. Ive never ran on slicks neither. Im gonna pick some vpd's and 22's from exospeed on here. cheapest i have seen mounted/balanced/and with valve stems shipped. never drove a low 13 honda. ive driven a nitrous si and vette chipped but thats about it man. that will be a first in its own. im sure ill see you around and ill talk to you about everything. later

 

well my hatch will be on spray also. get it tuned on a 50 shot. but im more worried about the all motor capabilities then ill see what it does on spray. was gonna put a 100shot on it but if it came apart i would be pissed i wanna save the head toward my next top secret all motor build. atleast your swap looks prettier than mine. and the core support is straight unlike mine lol

well we'll have to just run all motor then lol i want to pick up a 75 or 100 shot and get it tuned just for ***** and giggles maybe this summer. i put alot of time and money into getting it swaped clean lol. basically ujust about everything on my motor is new. you will have to fill me in on that top secret motor build lol

 

we shall see matticus is the only one that knows of my next plan.
