Utterly failed to do any of the above. May get a little done tonight, but not likely. Tomorrow perhaps? Or Friday?
Things got busy. Saturday is R33 time. Sunday is Carib pick up time (scoring a 7AFE to build a KP60 engine from).
Posting here today instead to note that I stole the battery out of it for the Lantis! Lantis is now very usable. This is not at all, anyway, with the super nasty knock coming out of it.
I think pulling the old B230K out of it ASAP and working on the DOHC swap as a stealth power-up and fix-up is the winner. That engine just requires one custom mount made cleanly/stealthily to look stock. It also requires an EFI fuel system setup, and an ECU, but that's easy enough.
