I used parts both from a 2000 civic gas tank and a 1997 integra gas tank to modify my fuel tank. I used the integra fuel pump and the civic fuel sending unit

Can't wait to see it Shan't.
Give us notice when you take it to SuperCar Sunday, and a fun run would be neat also.

Shant,
Great progress! This is also inspirational for folks that might feel an SR20 swap is a "costly" alternative. Mods can you please move this to the Engine Swap section?

Thanks guys I guess 11 weeks for a first timer is not too bad. This was also my first time welding
and performing any kind of fab work.

so what parts did you end up underestimating?

@inline4 at first i figured all i needed was the engine and trans $1300 mounts $400 maf $200 rad $150 engine harness $500 and $500 for extra parts. Then there were other expenses that i didn't calculate. I figure $4500 is the bare minimum to install a sr20de if you can perform all the labor.
@Alvin Im going to make a nice video soon ...
