Don't go to this hack shop anymore. Fix your fan correctly. There's a fan switch, a fan relay triggered by the ECU, and a fan. Not that hard. That shop should be forced to close down.

Go to hondahookup and download the repair manual. It has all the troubleshooting on how to fix the radiator fan.

Take out your thermostat and see if it's stuck closed. You boil it in a pot of water and see if the spring collapses.

With all this overheating you've most likely blown the headgasket at this point.

Sooooo instead of putting that in my old engine Im gonna put that $1,100 to a new d15b vtec from HMO off a 92-95 and it should all bolt up I'll just need a new ECU if I'm not mistaken.
