I ventilated the block on my Honda, in May. I plan to do a .040 motor. The machinist that is doing the work has looked into some rebuild kits and I have a few questions.
Honda does not make a rebeuild kit any longer. They do offer parts. He has found a rebuild kit that contains the following brands: Clevite bearings, Fel pro gakets, Top Line pistons and a Melling oil pump.
My question is: Knowing these products are ment for a general stock rebuild, do you think they are quality enough for an ITC race engine build?
Yes, I know that everyone will tout the quality of the honda parts... However, we are talking camshaft, pistons, and everything for under $400 vs probably close to $600 or more for the most of the parts from Honda. I am aware the the bearings might be a bit looser.
I need to make a decision in the next couple of days. He's ready to work on the block, and I'm ready to start working on the motor.
Thanks!
