i finally got my hands on a digital cam so i got some pics of my progress, i just got the block back from the machine shop because they had to cut the channels for the o-ring deeper. then i painted it and clearanced the crank scrapper. still have to check rod clearances and then install the o ring. way more pics to come. maybe even a how to. till then heres where things stand

i hope you get the how to pics going. very intrested to see/read it

well lets see that costs $1000 when i can pay $40 for the edyne post kit, $75 for a block guard and $150 to have the o ring channel cut. all labor performed by me. so you do the math. this method will be more than enough to support my power goal of 300 safe and reliably

i think i will do one on the o-ringing process and the proper way to stretch rod bolts and measure, as there have been alot of misconception about this.

Around here, I guess sleeving a Honda block costs only around $350.

Looks good though

well i checked the rod bearing clearances and they are tight as hell so these king bearings are goin in the trash and i have to buy oem because i don't want to line hone the rods again. kings are comparable to honda greens so they say, so i may step down to a honda yellow and plastigauge again.





then after all that work i had to make a late night run to popeyes(too much taco bell this week)
