just got in my An fitting fuel line piece looks really trick, will go good with all the other black braided catch can hoses and whatnot that will go throughout the engine. Waiting on a couple gauges then will show some pics of the them mounted.

GOD! im so close to putting the WHOLE motor together and friday i called up Honda to order some main bearings to get things rolling on getting proper clearences and to my surprise all Green bearings are on backorder. So im stuck waiting for when they will come in, which i have no idea. i can taste how close the engine is to getting built. Been working on it for well over a year and probably a half now and i have a hill in the road that i have to climb but it will get there sooner than i had though
