DSM ---- the bed, who's placing bets? (3 options)
I let my friend drive to the store (because I was drunk and he wasn't) and heard a loud bang. No power, and a plume of smoke. 
We parked it and partied for the weekend. When I got back, it wouldn't start and it was obvious the engine seized.
The #4 big-end con-rod bearing spun and blocked the oil port on the crank thus welding itself to said crank. Got a short block, Head, valve train, engine stand, greddy BOV, injectors fuelrail ect. for $400.00
So out with the old engine
The new block and parts
Now the big question. How long do you ladies think this build will hold up before it takes a proverbial roadside dump? I give it 20 minutes...

The problem won't be in the DSM parts but rather the idiot putting them on the DSM. How the hell do you plan on tuning that fat ching chang turd once it's on? If it's a half-decent bottom end without a bazillion miles on it I give it up to the 350whp mark IF it's properly tuned all the way.
Oh, I hope you didn't put the balance shaft belt on there with the block turned upside down either and have fun getting all the alignment marks in their correct spots. I'd give it quite a while with a qualified DSM guy working on it, probably no more than 2 weeks if it's you.

Seriously though, do us all a favor and never breed.

You never once mentioned balance shafts removed, and according to the one pic with the motor upside down it still has the balance shaft belt on it. And I'd take on your uncontrolled DSM wannabe knowledge any day bitch-***** and cram it back up your *** with my unleashed Honda/DSM/Subaru building and tuning knowledge. And trying to overshadow your homosexual ways with the "predominantly" Honda comment just goes to show the average age and income on here, not the knowledge base. Don't ---- with the old guy.
