I have a 1990 Integra with about 180000 miles on it i plan on lowering it and getting a body kit (no spolier) I was wondering if it was worth getting my block rehoned and the engine blue printed. or should i just spend the money for the new engine. Keep in mind i have a thing for late 80s early 90s honda/acura so getting a new car is not the awnser.
I kinda wanted to keep the old engine for the compression rate. i know i prolly could get about 180 hp out of it and not go turbo but is it worth saving the engine.

You could rebuild that whole block with new pistons, etc and even rebuild the head with all aftermarket performance parts and it's just like a brand new engine. Then you can do mad boost with a built motor and 9.2:1 compression.:D
