Icon7 1975 4 door eb1 Hatch -Now purring away!

hello, my names phill and as of recently i purchased this little minter of an EB civic
now i have stripped down the engine, and while stripping it only four of the outside headstuds were done up tight, so this lead me to beleave why the headgasket went so early - also that the head gasket wasnt the right one for it

new update, cars now running again and purring on all four, has 1mm oversized pistons 2 speed auto - bar one tiny split hose under the dizzy

here are alot of photos and the last couple are one of my previous cars

Can't help you except with a compliment. Love the car and it's color scheme.

well due to delay, only a couple of days ive sorted out the engine, well not the specs for it, but have worked out what the drama was for a headgasket it was early model cvcc without the cvcc bits - a factory frankenstine

it now runs on all four with a slight water leak from a 5mm rubber hose to the main water pipe
and boy does it hall with its 2 speed
