well after taling it over and getting some calculations done by east coast customs the new engine will be runnging higher compression ratio than a civic type R. will be running about 11.6 compression ratio compared to the standard 9.8 which is a good bit more and make it a bit more fun , also going to try to make it rev to about 8000rpm but will see what the engine want to do. should have my custom pistons in 8/10 weeks which is longer than i was hoping but its out of my hands now, once i get them engine will be build within a matter of days. bodywork is proving to be a nightmare also just nothing wants to simple on this car, but will take a break for from it and maybe get the cage welded in and the car stich welded. not really much of an update but just keeping you all informed. thanks joel
