If you don't know it..(of course you don't) H22 pistons will fit on a legend and will give you close to 11:1 compression ratio.
Putting heavy duty valve springs? Just get a set of exhaust inner spring from any junkyard and place them inside the intake springs.

What other internals are you looking for? Cause the crankshaft is forged steel, if you replace that you are wasting your money. The rods are very good quality steel, just need to balance them to get a little bit more rpm.
Ohhh and honda makes titanium rods for you...and crower, and any other aftermarket company makes them.

What other internals could you possibly want?

The pistons can be ordered for an H22 with low or high compression from JE and will cost you the same just add 2 pistons, no big deal. Same price as everyone else, just two more...but of course, YOU would have to order them custom made because you don't know better.

Tell me what other internal part you want and I'll let you know how to get it. Cams? crower, custom made just like any other car out there. Relatively same price.

And yes, I have a civic...and yes, it has a legend motor inside...and no..I'm not getting the hell out.

Let me know if you figured how to advance/retard the timing already.
Your civic is one of the few in can respect... Within it flows the blood of a champion... the Legend
