Aww man! Looks like you jumped on my boat. Sorry to hear that shit! You were one of my only mini-me buds! (That still had his car running) that REALLY SUCKS so is comp gonna give you a new cam or what? I know that bitch is expensive. I test drove mine to tampa, which is like 2 hrs away, and everything was fine untill I noticed my tac started jumping around and it wouldn't idle right. I was like wtf? Maybe my dizzy came loose since there is only one bolt holding it on. Looked under the hood, and the dizzy is still tight, all the wires are still on, then I look over and the alternator belt had been semi-shredded and flipped over rib-side out. So I am now stuck on the side of an Interstate at midnight without my gun, and a cheap toolset, luckily I was able to turn the belt back around tighten it back down enough to get it to my friends house.

I am sorry about your bad luck. I too know the woes of a having f-ed up honda engine...No car to go to make your 40 mile commute to work in..lose your job...and then when you get a new engine in the damn thing and have in running you have about 900 odd dollars in debt from your bills getting behind and collectors knipping at your heels and calling you every damn day!!..oops sorry I kinda went off there Keep your chin up lad and hopefully you'll get a new swap or get it fixed up or something...I wish you good luck!

Yeah, it'll all work out eventually, just kinda sucks, and i'm not sure if comp will replace it or not, from what my cousin was telling me comp is a good company about their warranty, because they're such a big company whats a cam to them... hopefully i'll have it running by next weekend again, and I might try and do a mild port job on the head while it's off again

The joy of cars eh, but what would I do with out my 4G...

if i were you i would be contacting skunk2 or comp cams and let them know you're sending them the bill

[jeef]

Yeah that'd be nice, but it was the wooddruff pin that failed, which came from honda, and considering its not neccessarly made for that application it'd be hard to prove anything...
