Looking good. Nice orange block!! Btw, you'r brother is one dreamy guy!

 

here you go!

 

The balance shafts were removed courtesy of Hondaddict's plug kit. And the oil squiters were removed since I got sick of spending so much time trying to get them to not hit the crank.

Yeah it did, but the engine that was in it previously was run into the ground in 1500 miles. The rings weren't seated, the head gasket was blown, a valve was bent, and the guides were waisted, oh and the clutch was toast. 125 shot will do that kind of stuff. It did have darton sleeves, wisecos, eagles, and ferrea valve train. Now its all oem stuff. I've had this project going for about 6 months on and off.

 

Chevy Orange NO DOUBT....adds 50 wheel torque.

 

nice,clean looking hatch dude!! ...just wondering...what kind of paint did you use to paint the engine?...on my old hatch i painted my valve cover(the powdercoating was chippin so i had to do it)with high temp paint and it chipped too after some time

 

i likes a lot. get some vision corners. hmmmm vision.

 

love it alot man..white rules..

 

nice car and engine ..i haven't seen anybody paint the engine block orange other than a shop around where i live thats called NRG..btw that hatch is gonna be pretty quick when ur done with it.!!

very nice hatch man, how much did you spend on the engine ?

 

funny how nothing on that engine has changed since I left after Christmas

Now it's time to get it running, take the Spoon stickers off, paint the grill black, and get a nice lip
