Lower right A arm came in yesterday. Cleaned and lube bushings, remove ball joint dust caps, clean and lube ball joint and replaced both dust caps and should have back together today. While waiting for A arm to come in, got bored and started doing a deep clean on the Engine and noticed the exhaust manifold was spewing spooge all over. Engine still running rich and my Ultra Copper exhaust sealer must've had enough and gave out. Removed, cleaned, sanded and repainted. Came across the stock Honda metallic/fiberglass (seems like that is what it is made of, at least) exhaust gasket so added that along with a new layer of ultra copper.

All cleaned up and ready to go get dirty again! Hope to get aligned and ready to run by tmoro.

Back together and running well. Still a little off on the camber - Here is what it is:

This is due to the bent knuckle I am assuming. I had the two arms on it bent back to the same distance as a known good however it was from the opposite side. Apparently just because the distance is correct does not mean the bends were made in the correct section of the arms. F-it. It's aligned and seems good. Ripped it up the street and back and seems to steer straight so time to move on.

Next...
