and the b18a1 motor has 100,000 miles already on it do i need to get the crank micropolished or any thing done to the cylinder walls should i get the block sleaved and the watter jacket has some oxidation how do i remove that do i even need to should i just invest in a new crank rods and pistons i need suggestions im 16 kinda new to the motor thing and im lookin for more than just 20,000 miles out of this engine i dont have the money to do this agian so i cant take any short cuts

 

buy a vtec oil pump and intsall that.

leave the pistons in the cylinders and all the end caps on. dont touch that ---- unless you know its fucked up

 

thats what i did with my b16 short block...if ya get it from someone with a good rep, dont worry about it.
