So, did you do any headwork or valve jobs before the install? What is you setup currently, and what is your issue to date?
The motor itself is stock, no real performance parts. But I did tear it down to the block and cleaned and replaced everything i could. as for the valve job, yes but i didnt replace the valves, just cleaned them up.
Heres a list off the top of my head of stuff that has been done to the car.

2 6" Alpine type S's
2 Sony Mtx 6x9s

pretty much all parts got cleaned and painted before installing again too.
I know there is some more stuff but i cant think of anything else right now.
I wasn't planning on racing this car, I didn't need anything to crazy. I just need a semi quick daily driver. and that's what I got. My Sohc sucked up quit a bit of water a while ago and hydro locked that was the whole reason for swapping the engine. I did all the work by my self, it was the first time i have swapped/rebuilt a motor. so it was meant as a learning experience. I definitely did learn a lot. I am have full time job and also a full time student (I'm 18). So it did take a while to do, but i got it done.

Sounds good. Good work. On my second engine the piston rings were the only thing left alone. Caused blow by and failure. Building a 2.4L this time. I'd recommend a ebay udp to really accent the mods you have. Keep up the good work.
