Hey guys. I recently moved to Florida from N.Y. I drove my 95 sedan with a b20vtec,B16 tranny,fuel rail,act clutch and all. The car made it down on the 17 hour trip. Wow did I waste gas man. I was scared that the motor would not handle the trip because I was hitting 80mph at around 4500-5000 for 17 hours straight. I mean not striaght but all I stopped for was gas and food that's it. Car handled it like a dream with a rear motor mount being shot. Anyways Im just letting people know. About ½ way through the trip I saw on a billboard and it said "Honda The Power Of Dream's" nothing else just that. Ehhhh Kinda made me feel better. Anyways B16 tranny for a long trip sucks. I am in the Sanford Seminole area if anyone needs help on there car. I am more then happy to help.

Yeah thanks for the love. Dave if you need to move it you can. Well Yeah I have been here for about 2 weeks now. I have meet 3 diffrent people here that are ehhh tuners. The GREAT!!!!!!!!! thing is that one of them works for the Honda dealership. Hehe that will be good when I need parts. Well Yeah if anyone needs help or whatever Im out here to help. One thing I can't get is they are charging $1,500-$1,800 just on labor to swap out a SOHC and install a DOHC. In n.y. we charged $450-$550 depending who you are.
