what should i do to the head to make it boost ready?
and was that 3 grand for everything included or just the rebuild of the block... did you get any pistons or rods... because i saw your other posts saying you have 11.5 comp pistons at the same time youg ot this fixed up
I've got a set of koni yellows on neuspeed springs coupled with atts, there's no comparison in handling dealing with the accord 5th gen. My dad had a 2002 coupe and I've drove both not even close end of the discussion kinda! The whole block was just under 3000 bucks that's including JE forged pistons and H beam forged rods with all arp bolts even in the mains! Just get it sleeved and then when you decide if you want turbo make the call on the pistons then!
