Of course now for newer chassis you have to make mounts and convert to a cable set up in the 92+civic

Yup but could be internet chatter which is always iffy. I know Bisi uses them but what is done to them isnt going to be known thats for sure
75 buck transmission that can hold power to run 9's does sound nice though

im kinda interested to see if anybody has cracked a sleeve in a d16 too. i melted a hole in a vitara and left a melted pit in the cylinder wall almost through the cast iron and i didn't crack a sleeve. this was with a block guard though, im sure it would have been a different story if i hadn't had a block guard.

ehh, i melted a piston in my B18A too... i dont think its got the same stress on the sleeve as your standard detonation sleeve breaking...
ill tackle transmission issues when it comes time. i will most likely be using a EF chassis... gotta get back to my HMT roots

I personally have cracked ALL FOUR of my Wiseco pistons in my gt3076r mini me and my cylinder walls were not cracked, Honestly I could have run a hone through the block and probably used it again.
I did however do the Hotrex Devcon block guard. So that might have saved it?
