Ya I thought about doing my rims too haha. It looks badass

I'm not sure on the cost. Contact Tirado they will hook you up. They do great work.

Update 4.10.2013


Well just got back from Buschur. Came home with my freshly re-worked shortblock and new v-band forward facing manifold and dumptube. Looks like I should have all my other parts finished up by next Wednesday. As of now I am right on track to have the car finished up by the Buschur spring race at the end of May.

The shorblock got all new bearings, JE pistons, rings, OEM crank, ARP mains, bored .020 over, decked, and ss o-ringed. The GRP aluminum rods that have seen two full seasons were checked and are good to go.





The new Buschur forward facing v-band manifold looks great. I am sending all my hot parts out to Tirado to get ceramic coated.




I will start to put the motor back into the car next week. Right now I have my engine harness all torn apart again to remove the two connectors not being used anymore now that I will no longer have MIVEC. It is a lot of work just for two connectors but I don't care...I want them gone haha. I am also going to be moving my ignition wires to a completely seperate harness. I want to seperate it from all other wires running into the car. The new harness will enter the engine bay behind my re-located power steering pump reservoir.

More pics and updates to come

No I believe the cylinder head will just be milled flat. I pick up my BR stage 3 cylinder head this coming Wednesday.
