Ha, what's up Alex. Lol How's the build coming along? I still have to get the bumper. I'm trying to get some more opinions on the build and the longevity of it. I'm dying to see the numbers.

Thx for the input jdm, i'm kind of stuck with those sk2 cams. My swap will be done right, head sent out, block also and all seals and gaskets brand new. I have an lsv and it was done right too. New parts and machine work. I really don t want to abort the whole g23 thing, but 20-50k? That's nothing,can I ask how you got that number? This is my 2nd accord, I was gonna boost the other g23 and go all motor on this one. I really don't know what I'm going to do now.

some threads on honda tech about ls v & b20 vtec. and just talk around the shop and other honda enthusiast theories. i was going to swap either or into my da back in the day. came across that info an got scared. aborted mission and went with gsr with b16 tranny boosted on 12lbs. daily driven and raced for 1 1/2. strong and reliable.. just what i wanted.. but ****in jackers snatched that **** up while i was at work.. havent seen it since :(

but my buddy did a backyard g23 swap.. mild build.. he has plenty of experience in swaps.. but every 20-40k he blows a headgasket.. so basin it off that.

just my input though.. im not some pro.. just a guy that likes to go fast for cheap.. < why i drive honda.. haha

Ok, thx for the info though. I can take that into consideration as I put mine together. I guess that head gasket issue is something, but I'm glad it's not a lot worse as far the block. I will drive it daily but not kill it everyday. Sorry about your gsr, that's why I want to stay in my accord lol. ppl see civics and integras and they look to swipe them.
