forged pistons for the j series can be found there^
Do you plan on staying NA or boosting? You will need to resleeve the block if you're going to try something crazy like 3.5 + turbo... our stock cylinder walls cannot handle much.
I have an 04 odyssey crank if you're looking for a build up...

thanks for the link
I just want the lower end to be able to handle 150-175 shot run after run all day.
I'm pretty sure the block will handle that.
mostly worried about the rods.
Upper manifold and TB will be next in line for the pnp since I just located a type s TB.

No PnP updates but,the headers showed up.
They look good but,I think inside the header where the 3 pipes are welded could have been cleaned up a little nicer.
TB hopefully will be here tomorrow so I can get some more PnP in.
Still waiting on the injetor base gaskets so I can open up the lower holes on the runners and match them to the heads.
I seen some one selling some in the BM and their going to open pretty large.
Once the gaskets are here manifold is coming off and getting done.
Also I think the header install will be much easier without the manifold there.

Damn, so shiny! I'd like to see some gains afterwards though

Got a type s TB today.
So I started on it but,ran out of sanding stuff. The TB plate is also knife edged.To help with flow.
It don't look too bad,I might go opening it up a little more.
Also started on the spacer.
It's trimed,and I polished 3 holes so far.
I'm going to make this piece look show quality.

also throttle plate thinned??? like you put it on a belt sander or something to make it thinner , cause the 1 thing i be worried about it being too thin would be when you are under high vaccum (engine braking) and it collaspeing/bending inwards, then it accelerates when in realality you are wanting to stop/slow down

Factory bore where the plate is yes.The inlet and outlet are a little larger and all bad castings are smooth.
It's all good,The plate is thiner the last 1/8" to 1/4" .Then the back side of the blade is beveled so the rushing air will flow easyier than going over the blunt edge that was there.
I put up pics of the blade after.

yeah i proably would just smooth out the edges

Did you get a new throttle plate to seal it up? If not, you may have idle issues due to air getting past it.

Ahhh, I didnt read it, I thought you bored it.

so I was board about a hour ago and took the manifold and throttle body out.
I took a pic with the mdx spacer sitting on the manifold to show how much will be getting taking out of the manifold holes to port match.
This manifold will flow crazy when fully macth port and polished

If you are worried about the shaft, you could always throw in a little [epoxy of choice] to smooth the transition from the throttle plate to the shaft.

stripped and cleaned the manifold today.
and only opened up the TB inlet to match the type s TB.
maybe I little making it larger and when it goes threw finishing steps it will be perfect.
every passage in these manifolds has a overlap.
I cant believe how bad the passages are lined up from factory.

here's another pic
TB inlet opened up a little more. everything is rough,tomorrow everything should be looking good.
This is a pic from inside the runner to see if the TB is lined up.
Tomorrow the rest of the manifold will be completed.
I finished the spacer tonight.
