damn. if only it was complete, it would be nice for building the head but i just need something to hold me over until i get a GSR and build that.

Id sell you the complete head but obviously for not nearly as cheap. I plan on getting stainless valves and titanium retainers/springs. Dont forget an LS with a vtec head makes several HP more than a stock GSR due to slightly larger displacement.

If not im probably going to Ebay at least one of the bare heads. Anyone have an idea of what it would go for?

i just feel the GSR is overall better block. i was going to go with an overbore anyways to make up for the displacement. i was just debating if i wanted to slap on a VTEC head on the LS block for now because the build is probably not going to be finished until mid summer or even later.

where's the updates?

Well, I pulled off the ebay header and put the stock back on, but left the catback. After comparing the testpipe that came with the header and the cat forever, I realized that flange on the testpipe was about 10 degrees total off from the stock unit, and that was what was causing most of my problems. Now im saving up for a DC Header, but I also have to register my Legend and pay for NALM so im a little broke..

Also, since this car is in nice running and driving condition right now, I started another project

Just added a big update to it today if you haven't seen it. Its a turbo crx build.

#8 and #9. Yes really. CRX projects.
