Bringin a zenki back from the dead.

So names Brandon. im 18 and a tech at a honda dealer (flame all you want). i was on here bout 3 years ago, then my dad sold the car. since then ive moved, got my license, my first truck which ive done some work too, and a job, and just recently another 240. its a 95 with a pretty decent body. has a blown motor, spun third rod bearing. downside is is its an automatic. ive already pulled the motor, and started tearin into it for a rebuild.








and a pic of my truck

[indomiekid1]

[dalzell240]

loaded the motor today to take to work so i can pull the crank pulley off so i can get it torn down to the block. when payday gets here ill be ordering my crank, and gasket set, and timing chain kit. ive got quite a bit of knowledge with cars, but this is my first time actually tearing into a motor and trying to rebuild, with the intentions of driving it again

[dalzell240]

[Drakelee]

nice, thanks for the pics most people dont post pics when introing haha

[dalzell240]

got more done on the motor last night. pulled the crank pulley and then everything else haha
when alls said and done the motor will still be completely stock, but with a complete new rotating assembly.

[dalzell240]

so heres a little update. got my crank today, itll go in as soon as i can power wash the block. also ordered my power steering rack, and a cold air intake. no pics right now, nothing exciting to take pics of haha

[dalzell240]

[dalzell240]

got "a" rack in today, idk what its for but definately not for the 240. it was listed to fit a 240, it doesnt

[dalzell240]

so between work and no money i managed to finish the valve cover. high temp gloss black, and used nissan aztec red touch up paint for the letters.

[simmode1]

Stunningly beautiful valve cover...

[laxands13]

thats tight dude. it almost looks pink, which is raw too. are you saying you touched it up like by hand with a brush?

[dalzell240]

so my box was supposed to be delivered todayy with my rebuild kit, but i came home to a ups note on the door sayin theyll try again monday cause the sender requested signature . my 7:30 to 5:30 job sucks when it comes to stuff like this

[dalzell240]

so its been a little while with no updates. motors goin back together slowly. gotta finish the head and then it can go on the block and everything else can go on. also bought a 5 spd swap that will go in as soon as i get it here
