^^ Thanks pearl for jumping in the thread. He and I have been throwing PMs back and forth about our D18 builds. I'm not sure which one of us really wants to be the first to turn the key. He is doing some real cool stuff with his build. I doubt I'll be done in 3 weeks though so he may be first.

Ok, flash back to uh, November 2007 when I contacted Nick Arias III at Atomic Speedware and began the piston design. Nick seemed like a good guy to work with. He took the time to listen to my plans and really seemed interested and knowledgeable about Honda motors. I got the impression that he's been at this a long time. He ordered the rods from Crower and sent the custom design to Arias Pistons. Then finally in late January 2008 the rods and pistons arrived...
