Andrew's engine swap (pics)

It's so gay. It's cool though. I'll be getting another car soon.

Andrew, I'm picking up a bottle warmer next week

Cool beans, bro!

Got some more progress done, and some goodies, too.

Test fit my IC just for kicks. I actually think it would work! with only minor modifications to my front end.


Painted the front


Got my sun-roof drain going to the right place( namely OUTSIDE the car)



Put the fender back on


And did some more touchup paint on the bumper support and stuff.



Then I picked up my Civic and delivered it to my buddy. Traded him the civic shell for a complete Wet Kit (NOS) and $200. Needs a new fuel solenoid.





I'm thinking of dropping the D16 in with that new headgasket(making my Compression 10:1) and spraying it.

thoughts?

did i miss something? What the intercooler for?

Ohh and that D should be able to handle some nitrous. Just make sure you get it tuned for maximum HP. i can see it handling a 100 shot.

Big chris was running a 75 dry shot on his single cam and it held up for a long time

Does my little eye spy a purge solenoid?!

Abel I was just seeing if it would work. I'll hang on to it. Who knows, I might want to try some turbo Action sooner or later.

Terrance, Yeah, i think it is.

This video will make you happy in t3h pants... Bolt on B16 w/a 75 shot.

**eDIT** sTUPID DAMN INTERNETS (OR ME) links up later.. Wife locked keys in car :S

If you're having trouble with that IC I Have a johnny racer one that fits REALLY well. IT's not as deep, but it's longer. The mounts truly hide it under the bumper skin.

It's pretty trick. Lemme know if you're interested in a trade or something.

why? that would be more waste of money. The head you have now will work just fine. Alittle P&P and your good. Its how your bottom end is built that is the question. You didnt rebuild it. Theres no telling how many corners the last person might have taken.

I like endyn dont get me wrong. If i have another N/A motor i want it built through them. i just think your thinking overkill right now. Once again just spending money without a game plan as to why and what you want to achieve.

Damn dreaming youngsters

I always do research before putting something in/on my car.
I do even more so when I'm about to buy something or know what it is I want to do.

ENDYN's heads come with completely revamped casting, port n polish, full valvetrain w/ oversized valves, and their version of the ITR cam. All for under $900. A fully built head BRAND new. You can't beat that. I think the head is a good investment. I can always put ANY bottom end on it I want. Like a built LS or a sleeved/bored B20 and make crazy power.

Since it's the toy, I don't see why it's a waste.

"I have a dream!..." lol

too cheap. Were going to have to Calesta on this topic. It doesnt sound like anything special besides the casting. There's no f'in way someone will sell you a $900 vtec head with a full race spec p&p and high performance valvtrain. They're prolly selling the same spec head as an ITR type except its "NEW".
YOU try getting that deal with Dart. They charge that much just for the fraking head alone.

Endyn said:

As you can see in the picture above, we opted to make the heads LS/VTEC friendly by machining both sides for dowels, and tapping the deck VTEC oil hole. All of the appropriate plugs are also included. We also decided to produce a version of the head with open GSR quench-style combustion chambers, for increased compression and detonation resistance in specific performance applications.

In this picture you can see the GSR flat-quench head, as well as the more conventional B16-style chambered head in the back ground.

We've spent a full year developing the intake ports. Right now, we are in the process of making final updates to the ports for release on the final production head in a couple months. All conventional B16 manifolding will bolt on and align just like on OE heads.

On the exhaust-side, all conventional manifolding is a bolt-on. We've also attempted to make all of the ports more similar than in the factory offerings that have radically different porting for cylinders 1&4 vs. cylinders 2&3.
As can be seen, the vacuum casting technology used in production is absolutely first class, netting heads that are exceptionally clean with less shift and less flash than OE castings.


There heads, purchased bare, will come complete with cam caps, spray bars (and bolts), as well as all oil and rocker shaft plugs and crush washers. There will also be a complete head assembly option. The complete head will come with rocker shafts, VTEC rocker arms, 33x28mm intake and exhaust valves, valve springs, spring seats, keepers, retainers, lost motion assemblies (with larger tops and more travel than factory ITR units), and our version of 1998 ITR cam shafts. Exact pricing on the heads has yet to be determined, but the bare head should be available for less than $500.00, and the complete head for less than $900.00.....and that makes these the deal of the century. Individual head components such as rockers and LMA's will be available too. In addition to selling the heads, we will also be offering inexpensive Roller-Wave piston and rod kits for those looking to assemble killer LS/VTEC engines.

Good stuff I say!

W-T-F






I stand corrected.


still that doesnt make sense. Why machine and assemble a head only to sell it the same price as a stock b16 head? You can get a b16 head for around $400 complete.

IDK but if this is true i should jump on the deal as well. Even if i dont own a honda

See!

... And you doubted me...
