Rebuilding the motor that is in it, is one of the options I've looked at. Time is my concern. That is why I was looking for another to build then swap.
I already have a spare head and an Xfi camshaft. I will redo the head myself. I just need to take it to my machine shop buddy so he can
Clean it (hot tank)
Flux it (looking for cracks)
Mill it (make the surface smooth again)
then I will rebuild it in my garage.
The Integra seats came from a car left at Field Auto (my Friend Ralph) when I worked for him. The car was junk so we scavenged what was good and sent the rest to Acura heaven.
They are not a direct bolt in.
I will use the sliders from the Metro seats and bolt those to the Integra seats. The Integra seat mount is about 1/2 inch wider so all I need to do is open each hole 1/4 inch to the inside.
You don't have to be an attorney to realize their could be some liability issues.
I am not likely to sell this car.
Ever.
If I can't find an engine to build I will build this one.
I have made arrangements with 2 of the guys I work with.
One starts the same time as I do, and the other stays late like I do.
They both live nearby so I am covered for the trip to and from work.
This weekend is seat weekend.
Tomorrow (later today) I go back to the yard. They were supposed to change out a bunch of the GM stuff. (thats where they hide the Geos.)
Later,
Schultz
