QUOTE (gsxracer80 @ May 26 2006, 09:53 AM) QUOTE engine swap, well that will cost enough on its own so after doing that you prly wouldnt do any mods for awhile, although i would do some pm on it before putting it in(new water pump, oil pump, timing belt) and perhaps a lightweight flywheel and clutch accually according to pm guidelines set OEM by Honda... timing belt and water pump aren't required until 105,000 or 8 years (I work at a Honda dealer)i realize that, but when you get a swap, you never can be certain the actual mileage on the engine, and its a better safe than sorry kind of thing.. it may not need it, but its better to do it then while the engine is out of the car and have the peace of mind knowing that its replaced and you wont have to worry about it for some time |
