- Sun Dec 18, 2011 7:51 pm #285882 Yep, Nick is finishing up the cams now. I'll stop by Honda tomorrow to order a new headgasket, block fittings for catch can, something else I can't remember.

Got the passenger side done, the stubborn toe arm bolt came out with a few blows from the 1/2". All is well now! It's back on slicks and sitting pretty.

Started to replace the stock fuel pump w/the Aeromotive my wife bought and turns out the sock orientation is incorrect. Not sure what to do, so I emailed Jegs and asked if we should send it back, if there's a different sock available or what to do with it.

Thanks for reading.

Realized my practice BMC line is not gonna work, so im going to have to make another.

searched google for pictures show how people have ran their lines for reference on how to run mine.

Finally managed to get the assembled. Bent my lines up, mounted the prop valve. All that's left is to bent and flare the cabin lines and then I can order some fluid, pads and rotors.

Thanks for looking.

All civic Master cylinder have two lines out to the prop valve. when you go with the wilwood master you have to do one into both the rear and front sides of the prop valve.

so if i dont use the willwod master cylinder i dont have to loop it like that?

By EJ1_MK
- Sun Dec 25, 2011 7:44 am #286971 No But you would have to run two lines into your fire wall. Would not recommend the wilwood unless you auto x and or road race on a regular.
