    Really digging what you're doing with the wagon. Dual sunroof idea is badass. Keep up the good work.

    Nevar! Hard to forget the work I put into this bitch.

    ....and I went to the wreckers to pull the D16Z6 and I spotted a shiny line in the front of the block while disconnecting wire and such for removal. Took off the head and noticed that I might not want that engine...

    I ended up taking the head home, anyway. It's in pretty good condition, besides the grime.

    Already paint 'jobbed' the vc.

    D16Z6 ECU and some mo betta headlights that I refinished with loads of inside black.

    Found these and they snuck into my tool bag...

    Refinished HB signals.

    This will work on the wagon? Hope so. Seen others with this dope bumper.

    REALLY clean hood.

    Paint and cutting done. Sags on it, but it's wrinkle.......so w/e. :P

    The bumper will work but you need the support too. I think. Good progress on the wagon.
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    I have the whole deal for the bumper. Much easier to remove the entire thing rather than just the cover. :P

    Picking up the block that lived with this head on Sunday.

    Start process on the block. Will be a while before I can afford to get the gasket sets I need to put everything together...

    Transmissions and such. Transmission mated with a D16Z6 should be an Si trans, no?

    Valve covers. I shaved the timing belt cover off of the bottom one.

    Er, You're building the engine on your deck? That looks like it's about 3 feet off the ground?
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    I am. Is a problem?

    Nope. I don't even have a deck! Sort of like awe. I was looking at pics and thinking how nice it'd be to sit on the deck and build an engine when I realized it was a raised deck. Started wondering how to get down.
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    The wife and I got it onto the deck.....she didn't like it AT ALL. Getting it down will be a lot more fun, considering the head wasn't on the block when we put it up. Trans was attached, though.

    That looks sick dude. You use wrinkle red for the intake mani and valve cover?
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Indeed. Then 2 hours at 200F for a bake cure. Glad you like it!
  • christofferchristoffer Wagonist
    Bitches. Mmmmm.

    Head is back together and resealed. Test fitting the D16 head on the D15 block. Looks good to me.

    I like it with the red wrinkle! Very sharp looking.
  • H_civic66H_civic66 Senior Wagonist
