coolkev25,
Before getting carried away with expensive teardown and repair make sure the oil level is not too high. If there is oil in the air box you may just have an overfilled oil reservoir. After a decent warm-up the level should be between the two marks on the dip stick. At the top of the stick is OK also. (Note: After an oil change with filter it takes about 2 quarts, + or - a small amount)
Additionally, if you have changed the oil/filter yourself please verify that the filter is in correctly (i.e. Label on Honda filters) (PN# 15410-KFO-315). It has two notation stamped on the same side. The filter markings are: "Out-Side" and "Toward Filter Cover". Another way to check is that the rubber seal is also on that side.
Let us know what you find out.

You know the proper way to install the oil filter?
yea il let yall know what the outcome is. yea i used to have a bunch of 240s and work on them and do swaps for people. the s/n was kinda a joke cause of a guys licenses plate at the local dragstrip, he had a gmc trucka and his plate said gmc2bad, so i joked around that i was gonna get one that said 2bad240, and thats been my s/n ever since

Sorry for going off topic but have you ever heard of Ivan from AMS? He has a 9 second 240. I did all the 240 fabrication for AMS and built Ivan's set up. Ivan put down 715whp, pretty sweet car!
sweet, i would have loved that. i build my sr i made about 400 with a 2871r on mine, but then i have a custom turbo setup and and put a hx35 off a cummins diesel on it. that was pretty awesome. i now have the same setup on my wrx. i just never work on it anymore since its started to warm up and we have been going riding every weekend.
i guess if the warranty doesnt cover the 700 it will be getting a rebuild at my shop and maybe some kind of custom turbo kit involving the stock tdo4 off the wrx. i dont know though nothing is set in stone.

Yeah filter in rite! Been using honda filter and oil! Its been at lakehill motors for a week now! Dealership n corinth,ms! He said if it had dirt ingestion, warranty does not cover it! So I might b lookn for parts to fix it myself! And ask for refund on 4yr waranty! Lol! So who makes a piston for! Haven't found any, in any books yet! Rm or dk! If any have info for parts for xx, [email protected]! Mite stroke it, cam it!
Lakehill is where I bought my Wolverine about a month ago. Good dealer. If you have to resort to it, tell Kirk that you were directed there through a customer on a big forum who bought a Wolverine recently. I know it's low, but you gotta do what you gotta do, and it's not lying or cheating so...
