that was seriously tough to read without punctuation did you do a compression check why did you not send the whole block to the machine shop did you tear down the block and inspect everything inside when you bought the block next time use the proper punctuation welcome to honda tech

Is it blue or white smoke?

Sounds like another half *** poorly put together motor. Don't blame jdm depot, blame yourself and your friends, well if they helped. I didn't see titianum valve springs and retainers or piston rings on your list.

Thinking about it now this is a troll account. So I'm not even gonna try
