I did the brake lines from the BMC to the balancer with goodrige fittings and braided lines. The lines are going straight down and then behind the steering column. They will go into the cabin at the beginning of the exhaust tunnel, where the balancer will be mounted behind the center console.
Last monday, when i was at work, my phone rings and my father in law calls me to tell me, we will have the engine back in before the end of the weekend. I was like: wait, what?!?!?!?!
In total we did about 3 hours of work on friday night and a last few little things this afternoon but it's in!
Thanks for reading.

Yesterday i pressure cleaned the non-ps subframe and steering rack. Also installed a new headlight in the Accord again. Somehow the passenger side light couldn't be adjusted in the right way, so I installed headlight no. 3 since the accident.
Today I painted the alternator. I had been putting this off, because it is a very tedious job. First of all, I taped up the pulley and the electrical components. Then I used pieces of paper towel to fill up the holes and cover the internal components.
Next up a few coates of color and clear.
A couple of weeks ago I already painted the IM and TB. Before i could re-route the wiring, I had to install the IM. So I installed the IM, the Hondata gasket and my K-tuned Fuel rail to keep the injectors in place. The wiring now runs over the VC, along side one of the heater hoses to the under side of the IM. The lose wires under the TB are for the charge harness en the sensor in the intake tube. I'm not sure how i'm going to route them.
Sorted out the rear and taped it together to my liking.

I replaced the hardware that mounts the passengerside mount to the engine. Also removed the studs on top and replaced them with nice shiny bolts.
Same goes for the driverside mount bracket. Removed the studs and replaced them with new bolts.
I figured the polished look of the hasport mounts would look a bit off, because i have nothing else polished in the engine bay. So i did a try on plastidippen the hasport mounts. This is the result for the driverside mount.

It must have been a X-mas miracle. On the 27th of december, I had done something to the car or the motor every day for the last four days. Yesterday i stripped down the K20, so i can clean it and get it ready for some paint. Just need to clean off the really dirty pieces and maybe spray the first layers of paint this weekend.
On the 29th, i took some time to work on our daily. When that was done, i went out and bought a few wired brushes for the drill and cleaned up the K some more.
On the 30th i did a few little things, like degrease the K and replace the trans to bellhousing bolts with polished ones.
Today i fired up the heat in the garage, did the last bit of degreasing and taped up everything that shouldn't be painted on the K. Then i shot about 3 coates of dark grey heat resistant paint.
Just need to paint and mount al the loose engine components, change the clutch and mount the trans.
