I murdered my last F20 going 3rd to 2nd instead of 4th
Bought another low mileage engine and had it installed since my previous one was destroyed. Since the miss-shift locked up my tires, I've also had diff issues. It's been whining ever since. If you have to replace the whole engine, expect $5k. Fortunately my labor and storage was only $500 at a friend/mechanic's place.

 

How much for the blown engine

 

so today i took the head apart and this is what i found:

what does the walls look like? Piston, you can easily change but once the walls are scored, you might as well get a new block

 

 

the wall is a lil scratch but nothing major but u can feel em

 

are those e3 spark plugs i see????

 

lucky

 

yes sir, any opinion on those?

 

i would only trust what honda recommends being a high strung, high performance motor. I've been pretty skeptical of the clams of the e3's. I have no experience with them though, so I could be wrong.
