No new big updates i did recieve the pistons and some goodies from strictly modified not much i can say other then they were a pleasure to deal with you email them you get a email back you pm them you get one back and you call them they pick up !
got a small update i placed my order for the pistons friday they should be here this week weisco had them in stock and i went over my buddys next door and we did a few things on his car and made a few things for mine added a -8 fitting on the rad so it will drain alot quicker and a huge -16 for the lower rad hose also made a fire wall plate for the harness and drilled the fire wall for a positive terminal so the alt and starter wires will no longer have to come inside the car.

a few the motors back i am running cp pistons with upgraded wrist pins i couldent afford the wait time for the weisco hd in there newer design. i have used cp's before in my first honda build along time ago and they are a quility piston as well ill have the motor in the car sometime next week.
also got the engine bay painted i did alittle body work on the drivers side before hand cut a bracket and welded a few holes. i dident wanna go crazy and cut every stud and fill every bolt hole untill i get some what finished with the car i wanted to just do the bay first to make sure i liked the color i will go back and do the rest of the car whenever the color is glacier frost mica its a tri coat and changes colors depending on the angle you look at it very hard to capture with my camera but looks awesome in the light.
its the color on the middle car below
looks alittle off with my phones camera but like i said its a pretty cool color.
