Aren’t these beautiful? Perfection. Got them to dress up the under hood bolts in a nice OEM fashion. Have more to get.

Trying to figure out how I’ll wire up these headlights.. they are single beam bulbs. I need the low beam wire to stay powered when I hit the high beams, the high beam will drop a shield actuated by a solenoid in the projector.

The factory fog light kit came with a lighter gray (type f) switch.. so I swapped it out for the right color to match my interior. :)

More little parts. I’ll probably have to order a small thing of parts like this a few more times. I just keep finding more things I need or want. Also, I sold my ATI street damper and bought an ATI Race Damper!

I picked up my rods but kind of got screwed! See how the bearing is sticking about the ends of the cap? Yes, you do need a little for bearing crush, like .006?? Can’t recall.. on the rod side, the bearing sunk way in. All other rods gave normal results. I also installed these bearings in other rods and they installed normally.

What it comes down to is a manufacturing defect. See how the cut line of the rod on right is lower than the good rod on the left? I pitched my case to real street, real street contacted manley and manley sent me a new rod with a return shipping label for the old one. Pretty sweet seeing as I bought these a year ago!! Crap part is I had them weight matched and mass balanced right? So I must bring them back and have them match this rod to the rest. :(.

Here are the specs for my rod journals on the crank. The crank gives the letter C? I think.. can’t recall,, for every journal. So according to Honda, this crank was the same diameter +/- .00005? For every rod journal. I measured each journal 6 times in different places and took an average. Seems like reds or one step thicker may be what I’ll use.

New rod. You know, I have the tools and knowledge.. but tend to get obsessive, I was going to say fuck it and trust machine shops work, trust bensoons work, trust part manufactures work,, trust plastigauge.. and just toss it together. By way of plastigauge, my main clearances were awesome, but rods were too tight it seemed.. this is with standard sized ACL race bearings. Sooo then I busted out the tools and such.. it’s damn hard to get an accurate measurement with a snapgauge for ID.
