Did you check the water pump? Have you checked the oil for milky color? Have you checked the radiator for a seal crack across the top of it (they are plastic ya know and they suck ass)? YOu have checked all coolant lines including into the heater core?

Ive replaced the radiator. when i bought it thats what I suspected in the first place and it did leak but now I cant find any leaks. The oil does look a LITTLE weird. Heater core was replaced before I bought it and did the swap. Its a mystery to me... Ive never had an issue like this with a Honda. Some days it will run fine and others it'll bury the temp gauge after about a 30 minute drive. Thats why i thought maybe the thermo. I did a pressure test as well and it was on par. Now Im leaning towards a crack that might be opening up under stress. Havent heard of anyone having a problem with a B18 like this tho. Should have just left the carb'd B20 in there and let it be.

Road Trip! =P

So there's not one shipping dock in Vegas? Anywhere? Near Vegas?
