    Hey guys,

    Here is alittle background on my 1990 acura integra. I bought it for $150 with a bad motor, replaced that motor with another and it ended up having rod knock. So I bought another one and put it and got it running. So thats 3 motors since Novemeber and I havent even drove it 5 miles. Still trying to get it to run good. But here the bulid so far... I have more done and need to take current pictures sorry. And just for everyond FYI I did all the work myself!

    When I first got her (It was a mess the kid riced it out):

    Pulled the motor & cleaned the bay:
