Started my sun morning by modifying the water pump housing.
Thought by removing an inch off the pcv port off would have probably cleared a M to AN fitting and a 90degree but it would still be too tight of a fitment, so that was a no go.



Thanks too google and a NewZealand honda thread i found out what needed to be done.
Also prepped certain items that got sprayed and primed longblock for whats too come.









Went ahead and tapped for the new fitting i will be using for the catch can.

Well finally ladies and gents the motor is assembled and ready to be mated to the tranny.

If all goes to plan no later than wed motor will be in the car for the first time since Aug 2013..
Yay for me....

Showing off my tdc and custom cam pins to set TDC. Fawk paying 8 bucks for the honda ones!!!









And a shot of the mod to the pump to fit the z3 block!

Nice I went with an rsx pump as well. Since that pump doesn't have balance shafts, that pump doesn't have to be in time, correct? Just out ge chain around the sprocket and give it tension?

So as promised, rain or shine, with or without help, i was not going to finish the day empty handed.

Started simply my torquing down the flywheel, and pressure plate, thanks to my lil brah that stopped by after work for a short period.
For the first time i dropped the motor in on my own and feel like a BOSS!!!!

A couple pix i snapped on the way.





















Still have a ton of things to cover before being officially done, the fun begins as the sleepeless night end.
