Well since i spend most of my time on the other forum i figured i would post up some pics of what i have been up to these last couple of months. My original plan was to have the car running in march. I was in on the group buy for the crower cams and couldnt wait any longer so i decided to go with a different company. Anyways long story short i got the cams from a different company in about 3 weeks and now they are off at the machine shop getting installed along with the springs in the ported and polished head that i sent them. So in the mean time i have been gathering parts like Ron R short runner ffim, xs power 4" ic, 2.5" pipes on the hot side and 3" on the cold side. I also got a nm short throw shifter that i cant wait to try out. I also moved my odyssey battery to the other side of the engine bay instead of in the trunk. I took out the backseats too. So since my head wont be ready till next week i decided to get the car running before swapping heads to make sure everything is running properly. I just got a new ait sensor for my vpc today since i broke my old one last friday when tightening down( I went 6 months being so careful not to break it and then the time comes to put it on and i break it). So basically all i have left to do is connect a few vac lines, change the oil and she should be ready to start. Here is a pic of my engine bay before.
