Will ya look at thattt just look at it will ya ...a carburetor lol don't see many of those still around on Hondas that pic reminds me of my first car it was a carb'd 1237 cc a little older than the car you just bought it made a whopping 65 hp I think it was a terd but I loved that little car anyway it was my first car .
You and that bubble ain't nothin but trouble
Cant believe its matching numbers and all and your gona tear it up, lol it hurts my heart. Still looking forward to it haha
much respect to this build to come
It's fun! I'll actually be charging the battery overnight, and tinker with the car tomorrow if the weather holds up. Came with a new car dontchya know! I'll need to drop the gas tank and likely blow out the fuel line(s). Metal gas tanks are a sure thing of the past.
As for your old Honda, I'm not that far ahead of you at 67hp! 2hp on a 1500hp car should definitely be noticeable on the butt dyno. Got any pics of it? Great first car!
Well, they say the demolition is half the fun! The end result will be nutty though. Very excited. Just need a good projekt name before moving forward to figure out what motor is best!
Thank you very much!

LOL I was gonna link that video haha How long has the car ya bought been sitting ? I still have a metal tank in my car and your right everything is plastic these days .I actually don't have any pics of my first car as it was a 1977 civic hatch that I bought in 1986 lol remember I'm old and cell phones were not in everyone's pocket back then like they are now with cameras. Hell we still had Polaroids that ya had to wait for the pic to develop after it came out of the bottom of the camera haha here is what the car looked like though
it was a 2 speed Hondamatic only had 2 gears I use to run 1 st to 55 mph then 2 nd I blew up 4 engines in 240,000 miles but could change em out in mere hours lol I am trying to think of a good name to suggest for this project but am drawing a blank right now .

The car is going to be drag car right? If so, I think a k20 would be the best bet as you can rev much higher and you won't really need the extra .4 ltr of displacement from the k24 and boost will make up for that and then some. IMO the k20 is better for a turbo almost entirely because it can rev higher.
K 20 higher revving will make more power than you'll ever need !
