ok...got the head back from the machine shop...one bent valve/ all replaced with oversized ferrara valves, LMA's all replaced, new valve seals, a 3 angle valve job and itr springs and retainers were installed.

now is this head ok to put back on the stock GSR bottom end? if not what should i do? plan on putting the itr cams i had previously in it back in. what mods should i do to compensate with the work to the head...please help me out...tanks in advance- jared

 

could be your ignition coil or module. Check for spark, if no spark, check for fuel.

 

so the motor doesnt turn at all? check all your grounds, especiall the one by the thermostat ... usually seems to be the problem

 

its osunds like it cracking over (starter) but the its not rotating at all. nothing...cams gears are motion less.

 

Are you able to view your camgears since you say there motion less? If there not moving while cranking that should be an obvious indication of a broken timingbelt.

 

Yea I'd start checking your grounds, then check each plug for spark. If you recenly unplugged any connectors/harnesses in the engine bay check those to make sure they're secure. Its a Honda, its prolly something simple, just mysterious till found. Let us know...

 

timing belt didnt break. but an update for everyone..took the head off and it is currently in the machine shop..seem cylinder number one valve were slightly bent on the intake side? not the problem, but an update. when head gets back will reinstall and let you guys know what happens. i really thank you guys for your help..thank you much...

 

Any updates?

 

How did it "just bend a valve?". This is not something normal.

 

my vote is that the timing belt jumped a tooth or three but did not break.

 

this is my guess....also ferrara flat faced over sized valves, springs and retainers and a 3 angle valve job is gettting done. should get the head back by the weekend. oh and what cams could i run with this head set-up?

 

what ECU?

 

pro 1's but check your valve to valve...

 

P28 chipped with an ITR basemap..for now.

 

did a check engine light or anything come on when the car sputterd to a stop ??

 

^^^^ no..

 

ok...UPDATE # 2. ive gotten the head back from the machine shop...one bent valve and a chewed up timing belt seemed to have done the job. but repleaced valve with oversized ferrara valves, springs and retainers. new valve seals and a 3 angle valve job were performed. the head looks good i must say...........any recommendations on what to do next???? please help me.....

 

can i put this head on a stock gsr block??????????^^^^^

 

Next would probably be to pick up a new timing belt, water pump and tensioner. Then make sure your new oversized valves aren't going to touch the pistons, then a tune.

 

help

 

What more do you want? hondakevin gave you all the info you need.

 

ive got that stuff...can i put this on a stock gsr block?? or not??

 

It came off of it, didnt it?

Why wouldnt it go back on?

Get a new head gasket as well.

Seriously though, i don't see why you're asking if it'll go back on? It'll be fine.

Make sure the pistons are OK wherever the bent valves were. Now might not be a bad time to replace bearings in the bottom end either (at least rod bearings)
