Good effort so far. The dash wont look too bad. However the original 3rd gen dash is pretty perfect IMO.

Engine = badass.

So progress report = nothing
Nearly 2 years since last post oh dear
It's still going to happen though I've realised I don't have the time or welding skill to do it myself
Therefore a nice old chap is going to do the fabrication work for me so I can tinker with the rest at my leisure
Here she is poor girl

Testament to Honda quality
This lump has sat outside for two years and only has some minor surface rust on the pullies
I pulled the plugs and filled it to the brim with oil and blocked all intakes etc
It still turns fine and none of the exposed elec connectors have any corrosion
Amazed
