Factory new is $4,200. Well, that's according to Ray at Malloy.

for some reason I thought he sold the last of those factory new blocks last year. If he indeed does still have some factory new blocks, that's fantastic. You don't necessarily need an ebc, you can control it with the PFC. Also no need to buy that stuff new, used PFCs and EBCs work just as well as used ones, and you can save the money to buy a datalogit, commander, and a quality wideband.

On the plus side the innovate lc1 widebands are really coming down in price. I've been meaning to pick one up, but I might save that until just before my motor is ready to go back in because the prices have been consistently sliding down.

Don't waste your time. You don't need a HBP, hell you probably don't need a streetport. For those that aren't racing their cars or pushing them to the limit need to stick to stock or small ports. No one listens though and wants an "Ito" style port to go knock out 300rwhp on twins or 400 on a small single.

Edit: Use the extra money you would spend on a streetport/hbp on a new wiring harness or water meth kit and you will be rewarded even though you probably wont realize it.

Not to mention an HBP is going to cost a lot more in supporting mods, and makes no sense on a 10-12 psi street setup, if thats your goal.

All you'll end up with is a loud stinky car that gets horrible mileage.

wiring to the CAS could be broken or disconnected, coils could be shot, the wiring to the coils could be disconnected or broken, the plug wires could be bad, the plugs could be not seated all the way in the wire, the wires could be disconnected from the coils. I think that's it... there might be something I'm missing. Might as well replace the spark plug lines while you're under there and see if that helps, if not, bust out the multimeter and get to work, check all connectors too.

If I took the plugs out and kept one in, and then cranked it the spark plug should spark right?
