Just make sure that when it's finished that you aren't driving through Johnny Trans neighborhood with two of the big bottles (which you needed by tonight), then he shoots it. But if that happens, don't forget about the NOS!!!! Sorry, I am buzzed, and feeling like a douche'.

i'm about on the same page as you at the moment. healthy ka is loose and pulled, but i set it back down because i figured i'd wait until my new clutch arrived today. was already to swap it in and probably would have had it running by the end of the night, BUT enjuku sent me an sr20 clutch pressure plate. i knew right away when i was laying the plate on top of my fidanza flywheel, the bolt holes didn't match up.

i also have to swap oil pans and picked up an oil pan gasket! thought i was going to have to use silicone, but the parts store had a gasket for the ka...sweet.

AND i'm doing pretty much the same thing you are with 2 blocks. one is on the engine stand waiting for machining (wondering about torque plate for boring the cylinders..? hope it's not required)

good luck man!
