Alright guys next update!! I got the new header on and am preping th motor to pull the old flywheel. The new 12.1 lb flywheel just came in from tweakit and my RB counter weight has been attached, should the wind be blowing to the west with KAMISAMA (translation: god) smiling down upon my project, I should have my baby back on the road eating Hondas again https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif. OH, QUESTION does anyone have a sparco seat they no longer want or need, or know of some lumbar supports i can get my hands on? I have a "sprint" type seat already and it does its job while I am driving "spiritedly" but for all those long 3+ hour drives it hurts my lower back. Thanks

Alright guys here we go. Need your opinion on what I did with the paint. The black at the base was mine.

Next what do you think of the motor setup. Cheers.

A stout impact wrench is the best way to go. The nut is supposed to be tightened to 250 (or is it 350?) lb/ft of torque, so you'll have to put some force on it one way or another.

Here she is finally, the new flywheel is on, the new clutch, and the 5-speed is on. Finally I can have my car back.. hahaha (evil laugh)
