    Don't think I understand the question. You have to use OEM internals of everything in an IT engine, except .040" overbored (max) pistons, which must otherwise be "OEM-style" in every other dimension and design.

    Thought so!!!!! Just sorting out a new car build. Trying to make sure we balance
    what is legal against what all the "experts" from the street scene say we should be
    doing with an Integra.

    "Experts from the street scene" will say swap, turbo, nitrous, or any combination of the three. I've built B18A/B IT engines, Prod engines, and "street" engines - completely apples to oranges on all three. Today I'm actually installing a fresh "turbo build" B18B into a Civic that's going to be pushing about 14psi of turbo'y goodness - wooosh!

    but it does say we can run Factory replacement pistons or their equivalent
    with the exception of diameter shall be used. Cast or forged
    equivalent pistons shall provide the same dome/dish/valve relief
    configuration, ring groove width and spacing

    so even if the eagle crank is the same weight stroke as factory its prohibited ? just looking for a cheaper replacement than a oem acura one and they can come balanced

    You don't just want the crank balanced, you want to balance the flywheel, pp and front pulley with the crankshaft. Plus every Honda crank that I have put on a balancer is already balanced.
