These engines are sensitive to having to much taken off the head when it's milled, so tell that to the shop that you take it to, or buy a good used head.
I've never seen the Honda vacuum lines harden, you can tell they are stock because they will be numbered in very faint white print on the rubber, useful when trouble shooting, there should also be a vacuum line map on the underside of the hood.
Looks like the base model or DX, right? if so I have a full engine from a civic dx that was rear ended if you need any parts.
