[PR CB7]

Thanks guys....

Well, it was a great Saturday since I completed 90% of my engine, and got some new wheels and tires on....

..until I went to a friends house, and did a compression test. Here is where I got frustrated, and depressed:

Cylinder 1: 150
Cylinder 2: 80-90
Cylinder 3: 140
Cylinder 4: 140

they're like 50 bucks a piece new

When we pulled the engine, I used a shitload of Purple Power, and a pressure washer. Along that, a toothbrush (which I still have as a trophy). I did alot of meticulous cleaning. Then, I used a combination of Krylon white primer, Rustoleum Gloss white, DupliColor white, and Krylon Clear(non-yellowing). So far, holding up pretty well.

Obviously, its not the most perfect engine bay out there, but I put in alot of work sanding, and removing most of the seam glue shit Honda used, and spent only maybe $20 on spray cans. Its worth it, and looks alot cleaner.

I just cant stand installing anything on a car without cleaning the area up first...

nice build so far, looking to take the same route, might get a crashed prelude and steal everything i possible can! haha! Sucks about your 80-90 compression, figure out wat it was? Also those Volvo lips looks clean on a CB! What yr/model those Lips come off? my moms got a 02 volvo, gotta go check it out and steal it! haa. Nice build though, good look with the future plans
