Thanks guys!good stuff
Haha I was trying to make it look like the engine was already in if you were scrolling too fast
lol B16 Valve cover, Y U NO FIT!!??
So I've been thinking about the wiring and I decided that I'm going to reloom my harness to make it tucked. Kinda like the one on this page:

I figured that it's something I want to do eventually, so I can postpone the swap awhile while I do the wiring. It doesn't seem super hard, mainly time consuming. It is definitely not worth the $300 - $500 for a professionally done harness. I will progressively tuck the rest of my bay after the swap is complete.
I wanna do a wire tuck on mine, but I just don't have the creativity for it...lol
i thik im going to change mine up a little when i do the swap. but good lord that guys engine is beautiful. every bolt is new even. and all the plugs were depinned and dont correctly. i wish i had that much time to do one
Haha it takes more time and dedication than creativity, but I know what you mean.
I really want to do my EX harness like that, but I'm not sure yet. That guys whole build is sick, but his engine is just awesome. His attention to detail is amazing.
being able to afford amzing detail must be awesome lol i wish i could afford all new bolts and stuff
Car is coming along nicely!
Out of the 12 pages or so, it was your first initial posts that stood out to me!
If everyone took this approach, there would be fewer half done, hack job Hondas' running around!

Great approach and attitude, especially from a younger person! It's refreshing to see that you have some ambition and initiative to LEARN!

I know exactly what you mean. I was thinking about buying the Downstar B-series bolt kit for $70, but I need the money for other parts of my swap right now. It'll just have to wait.
Haha I got one person...
Thanks man, the parts have started to get a little more expensive, but my budget has stayed the same. I've been forced to be patient lately.
Haha that's twoI almost believe you got the B16 on the hatch hahahaha
Glad to hear it!
Not much of an update, but my order from Majestic came in today.
I've already started a list of the things I realized I forgot.
Haha exactly. I literally hit order then went back to the garage and remembered like 4 or 5 things I meant to add to the cart.
Thanks man! I used a combination of Simple green, paper towels, and a 3M Scotch Brite pad. Once it was cleaned, I painted it with 500 degree aluminum finish paint.
