Well I just got done eating lunch and got back from the dyno. I went in expecting a certain number but you'll see what the results are. Here's the pics.
Here is the current ride height.

Before the drive to Mainstream

Here it is upon arrival

And for the last and most important stuff, the numbers...

Nice man. The car is really starting to come together. I can't wait to see it painted. I'm assuming there were no hiccups with the dyno testing?

Yeah it's easily as fast as my h2b in my other car. Makes almost the same power. Scotty said it wanted to make more power. He said if I got pro 1's and had h22jones's dad port my head I'd probably make 20-30 more whp. Which is believable because power doesn't fall off, it just goes flat because of the lack of air. So apparently 220 wheel is the wall for a stock port B head.
On the to-do list for today is make the throttle cable a bit less "crisp" lol. It needs a little more slack because its engagement is a bit sharper than I'd like with the pedal. Also the exhaust hits the gas tank heat shield as I saw once we jacked the car up. I also need to adjust my clutch pedal since it releases closer to the top than I'd like. Also they didn't clock my wheel 100% straight so I need to take a trip back to the tire store and get them to fix that. Lots of little things that in the end will make it that much better. Hell it drives great now, just since I didn't put the moldings on or a passenger side door panel or any interior or door handle there is kind of a lot of wind noise. The lack of a radio currently makes it no fun to cruise in.

Yeah I noticed the power still climbing at 8000. Really impressive. And torque is so damn flat! Gotta be fun at any rpm. Can't wait to get rid of my sohc

Yeah we revved it to 8500 on one run and for the last 500 rpm's that aren't seen it's flat as a flit. I'll change it up one day and maybe port a head and change the cams but not this season.

Well with all good things comes a few bad things. Every cloud has a silver lining though. Monday while I was at work someome came into my driveway and ran into the rear bumper of my rhd. It mashed it in pretty good like a pumpkin sized dent in it and made a gap about 1/2" below the passenger tail light. I was mad all day that I thought someone random did it and that I would never find out. Turns out my Grandpa did it and thought he hit something but didn't know. At least it's bumper only and no metal. I'm going to buy a new OEM Honda one since the plastic has micro cracks in it. Straighting it out with a heat gun would be easy enough but I dont' want to chance the cracks still being in it so for a little over $200 I'll just get a new one. :???:
Here it is pushed back out


Also the car will be at my work this week so body updates will be the thing from here on out.

Ok well I got some more progress done to the car over the past couple of days. I've got a few big things in the works for it but it's all such a headache. So little updates this time.
Marked the dents, then sanded them and noticed I didn't break through the paint. So I sanded until I did and noticed that including the factory paint it had been painted 3 times. So I decided to mechanically strip all the paint off of it with an 8" DA.

Paint in a pile in the floor

Stripped down with only a little of the factory primer left.

Primed and masked with our Corlar epoxy primer

Finally painted my damn battery bracket and bumper brackets.

You can kind of see where I'm going with this since my header melts my factory block off.

Traced and ready to cut

Cut and ready to drill and prep for paint.
