Default New to Honda-tech

My name is Kody, Im from Evansville, IN. My current project is a black 98 civic dx hatch. Its running an endyne built 84.5mm GSR block with ge sleeves, block gaurd, rods, and 9:1 pistons. It's a work in progress. I just recently completed a mild wire tuck, engine bay shave, and paint. I'm not done with everything yet i still have new stuff coming and i have to fabricate mounting brackets for my power steering and coolant tanks, so please dont hate. I just thought i would share, so here it is...

Wow I wish my DX looked like that, or the previous owner had built the engine once he had it open...

im not really sure. it's never been on a dyno, so there is no telling. i'm going to get it tuned again in the next few weeks. I'll hopefully have some numbers then. I'm aiming for the 450-500whp mark.
