hey guys I'm new here and not very knowledgeable on Hondas, I got a worn crank on my 1.7 and was wanting some advice on whether I should replace the crank, block or just get a new motor...? Any good word on this will be appreciated.
 
Welcome to HondaSwap :thumbsup:
First things first, how bad is the damage? Also, where is it located on the crankshaft? Have you had a machine shop inspect the crankshaft?
If the crank is worn too badly, you'll probably need at least a new crankshaft and some bearings. The block should be ok as long as the damage isn't too severe.

Pics would really help in this case. You're a greenhorn so you can't host them here, but if you host them elsewhere (imgur, photobucket,etc.) and then link them here, I'd be happy to take a look and give you my opinion on the damage.
 
Welcome!

Make sure to check prices on low-mileage junkyard engines... quite often they'll be a LOT cheaper than a rebuild.
