Got the rest of my parts today, rebuild is officially underway...

[delsolvtec]

Project 11 second single cam sol is underway... Wish me luck...

Pics of the progress thus far...

Head is sitting at the machine shop right now getting all new valves with Ti retainers and double valve springs along with a race grind and an extreme port and polish. (costing me about 900$)... ouch...

Turbo is at another shop being modified to push a conservative ;) 17psi...

It's going to be a JDM ZC block and a USDM 1.6 Vtec D16Z6 head..

Looking good.
I need money;(

[delsolvtec]

So do I, the dang headwork just tapped me out for almost a grand. 4 angle valve job, replacing 4 bent valves, new seals, 30 thousandths deck, port, polish, extrude hone... $$$$$$$$ My bank account is near empty...

[KwikR6]

No shit...I have been wondering where you have been...and well...this makes sense...I haven't talked to you for a while...

[delsolvtec]

Yup, I have been glued to the garage man. I've been busy with measurements, balance weighting, machining, painting, cleaning etc... Just waiting for my back ordered ARP head studs and my poly motor mounts to get here. They are the only thing holding me back right now. Two of the things that I forgot to order and they are both on back order....

[autocrossthugg]

Nice. Send us copies of your time slips when it's all said and done. Keep up the good work.

[delsolvtec]

I'll defenately be posting up time slips (next year obviously) and dyno sheets once the car is back together and broken in. I can't wait to flip that switch for the ZEX.. Oh I can't wait.... I'll probably blow the engine again in a month... but oh well..
