motor is almost out

[ChrisCantSkate]

my engine(h22a) came in yesterday. extremely clean. we preped it a little, checked over the seals and whatnot. we got my old block(h22a1) about 85% out a few times but either hit the tranny or the crank pully on the wheel well, and when we finally fixed those 2 problems the intake manifold hits. so thats coming off in about 20 mins then hopefully *crosses fingers* my car could be running tonight.

good luck. you replacing the tranny two?

[ChrisCantSkate]

nah im keeping the same tranny. i got the old motor out today, switched the tranny over to the new motor, got the new motor in, got it wired, and forgot to lable a single hose. needless to say it didnt start up tonight, but ive got about 90% of everything done, just need to finish putting the axles on, bleeding the clutch and power steering, and give it a crank. we tried turning it over earlier but no luck, i think there might be an electrical problem since its not even cranking at the moment. might be my battery is too dead, but im going to triple check everything tomorrow

yeah we bled the lines for about 15-20 mins and it was still spitting air out. i just couldnt take it anymore and moved onto my next problem i have.

i got both axles back on today, got the header and exaust hooked back up, fixed the front motor mount since it wasnt sitting right, didnt even touch the electrical or try to crank it. just took care if the minor ins and outs.

also ive been polishing my intake manifold and its made a huge difference for smoothness most notably in the TB and the plate with the 2ndary runners on them. im going to try and find someone with a h22 prelude to be able to check all my lines to make sure im not f-ing something up.
