Andrew's engine swap (pics)

HEY HEY.. If all goes OK, I"ll be there Friday.

We can make it a date Instead of buying me dinner, you can buy me a part :gayflag:

jk

Well how about this. Since I have to work Friday 'till 5:30, and will probably be going to PnP thursday, I'll just give you the receipt of whats leftover.

Gravy?

Updates in a bit guys. I'll be heading home to do some more work in a few minutes.

Progress today;

Installed my boost gauge line. Instead of installing the vacuum manifold I just tapped my intake nipple. worked like a charm!


Edit: Speaking of which, I applied some "special adhesive". AKA Liquid Nails to the Gauge Bezel I made:
I'll let it cure overnight and then I'll install it and be done with the interior



I finished he VC:



And I finished installing the dash:








I'm almost there!

I like the valve cover color. Note: I installed the traction bars on my 88 CRX. I installed them last Friday. I've been driving since without any problems. you're very welcome for a test drive. I'd like to sell the traction bar to you. since you had to cut the rad supports. Full-Race traction bar are being used on lots of K20 CRX's. Let me know.




This 88 CRX hF is for sale. I wish I had the cash. *testing waters*clean clean k20 crx.built right - K20A.org .:. The K Series Source . Honda / Acura K20a k24a Engine Forum

Sucks, but we'll see.

Got the axle seal and the coolant block off today (gotta love it when your 'supplier' is a under 5 hrs away. heh)

haHAHAH. I couldn't figure this post out for a few seconds. I wondered why klyph was speaking german. THEN I re-read it for the 5th time, I realized it was "halo nerd" as in, the video game. not "Hallo Nerd" as in saying "hello nerd" in german......

After I figured that out, it made sense. heh.


@Andrew: I've been following your project for a long time now, nice going. I'm a little sad you decided to transition to a blown engine, but I'm a fan of N/A, so I don't blame you. Looks good.

I just need to find time to do a wire-tuck myself....

Yeah I built the D for N/A with the high compression, but as the old saying goes, "N/A is the expensive way to go slow."...

Thanks for the comment, bro.

what did you ever do with that motor?

It's just sitting in the shop.



Got the VC on:



Finished the interior!



And installed the gauges:




I'll change the axle seal and hopefully get the drivers side axle taken care of this weekend. I've got Monday off of school, but idk if I want to work all day or fix my car... hmm... probably fix my car THEN go to work.

I like that a lot. My buddy bought a boosted hatch with the guages where the heater stuff was, but its a little different here since it's pa and it's cold

There's a hole in your dashboard

haha... yeah. Well, since it's Florida, I figured I don't really need it, since I wasn't using my A/C during this past summer anyway, I went ahead and gutted it. As far as heat... it was like 32* this morning, and I was sure glad the minivan (yes, minivan.) had heat... but It's all good. I'll just get all bundled up and stuff in the mornings and I'll be fine.

I couldn't imagine living up north like some of you guys. Us floridians are such pansies sometimes.
