Default 96 Midori hatch build

So I've had this thing a little over 2 years now. Picked up from Rafa over at RTuned in Pacoima. Decided after selling my two previous hatches that I'd find a Midori. I'll keep posting progress pics but plan on at least having the motor in within 3 months. I've collected a few parts from leftover builds & adding more as time progresses.
Current engine will be assembled










P72 head, B16a block because my B16b was damaged, GSR trans, Supertech valves, springs & retainers, Toda Cam gears, Feels twin cam header, & everything else will be pretty much OEM.

Stay tuned....

Maybe it's been a while, but why do I have to wait for moderator approval? Censorship?
