Yeah I've never been a Honda guy but I really really dig this car. That's something I love about this site, the variety of cars.
Very nice work, dude.

Quick update, just so everyone knows the scoop!
Due to a minor setback (ticket and getting strep throat), the brakes should be on the way by the end of this month or the beginning of the next, depending on what order I take care of things.
BUT after much research and looking around, I'm going to be doing a dry sump setup as well, this winter. I'm just far too paranoid with this motor, and that would basically give me all the clearance I could ever need, along with shortening the header.
Due to this, some of the other winter plans might not happen as soon as I had hoped (depending on if I can pick up an extra job or not), but I'm going to try to at least get the cams, valves, valve springs, retainers, cam gears, and tune done before spring rolls around. :mrgreen:
Thanks again for the support, everyone.

hidden rad is cool. not sure y i havnt subbed ur thread yet. i want me an eg sedan so badOriginally posted by M.BurroughsI'd have to say this site was founded on building the cars we wanted to build, despite if the rest of the car community liked it or not. This site was founded on freedom of automotive self expression and the passion that goes in to each and every build...

Originally posted by JasperThomas View PostI've always heard that those are a ridiculous amount of work and/or money. But by all means that would be sick. Is it possible to raise the motor at all? Or did you already do that when you did the swap?
To raise the motor, you would need to measure the clearance between the motor and hood, then weld additional metal onto the factory motor mount bracketry and get all of your holes level. It would help the geometry of things, but you also have to get rid of the vibration mounts or relocate them somehow. I might do that at some point, but the transmission should be the only extremely vital component that I have to worry about after the dry sump and shortening of the header.
