I think Dallis and I have had the most experience with the 7gens motor but I honestly would not be willing to pull it apart again because it's time consuming and I've done it twice already! Sorry bro, see what Honda has to say and then post up!

40th St and University. Use Google dewey. Call around but do some research first. You'll have to wire up the vtec solenoid and get a new ECU

Lets put it this way: All of us who have EM2 and ES1's, and are in the Honda game at ALL, know how much they suck. The car can look great, but it will ALWAYS be slow, it will ALWAYS get clowned, but on the flipside it will ALWAYS start, it will ALWAYS run, and parts will pretty much ALWAYS be cheap.

Fast + Reliable = Not Cheap
Cheap + Fast = Not Reliable
Cheap + Reliable = Not Fast

Whats important to you?
