What would jebus do?
So I leave again for colorado in about a week and a half. I was planning on swapping a stock rebuilt b18b block with a gsr head and tranny into my currently stock automatic d15 95 civic hatch. I'm sort of running out of money and time here, and I'm missing a bunch of key parts still, such as a distributor, exhaust manifold, shift linkage, ecu, and i'm sure a lot of other things that won't be apparent until I'm in the middle of the swap. I still have to disassemble the block and put in new rings and bearings, convert the car to manual, and swap in the new engine. Also still lacking arp rod bolts because of a fucked up order. What would you, or jebus, do?

I might just leave her stock for now. I just don't look forward to what a dog the d15 auto is going to be at 8000ft, and even worse going over the 11000ft passes. An ls/vtec sounds so much more appealing, especially once turbo'd
