So my shortblock has about 113K on it, and I think my piston rings are going. Rather than just replace those, I think I'm gonna get a whole new shortblock, build it, and swap it out.

The plan:

Eagle Rods
13:1 Wiseco pistons from ImportBuilders
Bored/Sleeved to 85 (86?)mm

Keep everything else- including my B18A head- I hate LS/VTEC with a passion. Eventually, maybe P/P the head and intake manifold and a bored throttle body.

Questions? Comments? Criticisms?
