If I owned that property, I'd tell you to stop making my cinderblock wall look like shit.

find me a nice used 1st gen civic grill or a NOS one for a RS .... because they do not make them reproduction ,trust me I know my car still has a LONG way to go ,butttt I do have side skirts and a spoiler ! side note, I bet that poor eb3 turbo motor has terrible detonation problems

geebus that turbo is as big as the motor.


full spool at 5K lo

intake charge temps climb faster than the tachometer

look what I bought today and ive already got a spare complete gen 3 zc head to rob the cams out of and cut the intake for kien carbs

well, spent my entire day off researching and gathering swap information, found quite a few different ways to skin the cat but here is the most straight forward way on "cut and pasting" installing the swap, accept I am motorcycle carburating it and msd ignition to get the engine in the car and building from there , im excited, hopefully will bring good things

need to find cg transmission

purchased a engine stand today, tomorrow the breakdown begins, engine cleaned up nice though, im crazy excited to begin this swap (still probably a full year out from completion in car running) ive been talking about doing it forever now

That's a sweet ass engine stand

Let me guess, the engine stand actually belongs to Shoob?

harbor freight special (excuse the mess its my daily still)

ROFL! The real beauty of it is in overall efficiency. When the engine work is completed and it's back in the car - simply mount the tire back up on a wheel and you're ready to roll.....

why am i not surprised by your stereo install?

That entire dash is a hot mess. Embrace the minimal look. It will represent the car so much better. I say you think "resto-mod" and it can be a bad ass car....a bad ass car that is timeless.

ive got to cut a bar in the back of the dash for the radio to set flush, trust me I know it looks tacky, ive got the door panels (still havent finished them) I need carpet, blah blah blah, still lightyears away from finished, anyways, spent some time on the motor today, the zc cams go in tomorrow, a complete engine gasket set and timing belt/water pump coming in the mail as well , im also thinking might as well do head gasket, and go get the head decked and probably shaved a little, and arp head studs, no I have not touched the intake since its getting cut

Technically, it belongs to dilbeckskater - but, it's endorsed by Shoobs - kinda like a Babe Ruth version of the Louisville Slugger or an Eddie Bauer Ford Explorer....it's actually called a "The ShoobStand" and is marketed exclusively by high end tooling retailer Harbor Freight (they went straight to the top, completely bypassed Mac, Snap On, Craftsman, Husky....). In fact, it's so popular they even named an Alternative Rock Band after it - ShoobaStank.
