yes you can do that if it isnt cracked or warped that bad. then resurfacing depending on how much raises compression and i think i will rebuild the head and block all at once

The warp service limit is pretty tight. But for $5500 how can you go wrong.

Agreed, at that price even swapping the motor you'll have a fun toy.

If you think you might need a new engine, www.hmotorsonline.com has gotten high praise among the Honda community. Good luck with the purchase, and let us know how it turns out; I'm keeping an eye out for a "cheap" AP1.
