Hit up the 89 Integra (model doesn't matter, all had a d16a1) and go to the "Cylinder head cover" section...their part # is 85799 - I dunno the real honda part number without looking on my invoice stuffed away in a drawer somewhere.
For the bolts...go to the "cylinder head" section and see if you can find what you need there. For OEM, this is the cheapest place I've found. The only thing is to make sure you have all your shit together when you order..they charge ~$7-10 shipping in the US, and a $5 (US) handling fee on every order for some shmuck to go pull the parts off the shelf and ship it to your happy ass
HTH

yea i think i'm just gonna run 2 the junkyard today and snag some bolts and some valve cover washers, prolly the easiest thing i can do right now lol but if i need 2, i'll use that link

alright, sounds good to me, i'm not ready to do it yet but when i am then i'll hafta remember this

also, to make it more accurate, can i make the feeler gauges bigger/smaller to get the right reading between the cam pad and the follower? or just use the actual spec and not worry?

well, went to the junkyard today, picked up a throttle body (busted tps tho so now i need one of those!) got the RIGHT plugs wires this time, got all the bolts for the cam caps, and also snagged a fuel pressure gauge that bolts onto the fuel filter

Hey engine looks pretty sweet. I have a ZC sittin on the side im not sure what im doin with it though. I want to rebuild it and like yours frakenstien it, or sell it im not sure. But i have a ZC in my rex, and ill let you know. My cam cover rubs on the hood, so unless you get the JDM hood with the bump for the cover, i would leave it unpainted or leave it off and have your "nuts" swingin in the wind(which i wouldnt do unless your not too suseptable to weather, dirt, or something else). how much did it cost you to rebuild your head? Im thinkin a port N polish with cams, roller rockers, adj. cam gears, valves, the whole 9 yards. I have an extra ZC head and manifold....um....and 2 SI heads. Shoot i even have a VIS "Flared Mugen body kit" im lookin to sell, unused still in plastic wrappers and box. Desided to keep the sleep look.

hmmm, well the head hasnt been touched as of yet, i'm trying to find the right valve seals for it, my d15b2 head costs 80 bux for them to clean it up and install new seals, that included removing the cam and installing it again, so since i have the cams out of this head already, it might be a bit cheaper, i dunno,

also, would u wanna trade the mugen kit for something? or how much are you looking to sell it for? i wanna kit my car but i mainly want the sideskirts, i'll pm u with what i may wanna do and lemme know if u think its fair

EDIT: just realized i cant PM u for some reason? lol
well what i'm thinking is i'll trade you my Integra seats for the side skirts and door caps of the mugen kit. if u think its fair let me know, cuz i really want side skirts for my car, maybe a new front bumper too but i dunno if u'd go fo that so thats why i'm offering for the skirts only right now, i dunno, we can try to figure something out here

[91CRXTC]

Derek, where r u from? What condition r the seats in? what year r they? im not sure how or what thoughs seats r like. and i NEED a black rear bumper. OH! and how did you get though pix posted with your reply?

[1PhatCX]

i uploaded the pics onto cardomain and then copied the links here and used the {IMG}link{/IMG} tags only using [] instead of {}

seats are in good condition except the usual rip on the driver seat bolster, drive seat also has the lumbar support in it, u can see the pics in my sig, dunno what year they are tho, also, i wont be able to get a black rear bumper, and i cant take mine off because i fiberglassed it on lol, and i'm from ontario Canada

the seats are really comfortable tho, its just i came across a set of Si seats so i'm getting those instead

EDIT: also, is the kit for a CRX or Civic?

[91CRXTC]

The body kit is for a crx, so the front bumper would be different and im not sure about the doorcaps and sideskirts though i dont think the skirts would fit either.so it looks like we r both screwed.

[1PhatCX]

damn! that sucks ass big time


if anyone knows any different please tell me!!! hehe

[Posey88cvic4dr]

Is the bottom end and intake manifold painted, or just cleaned? if cleaned what did you use?
