I would replace that cover with a new one along with all the associated parts.

I bought that core support assembly to replace a hacked up standard support on a 1967 GTO I used to own.

I sold all the parts and never ended up putting them on the GTO.

Those B-body spindles and 12” rotors are substantially heavier than the original disc spindles and 11” rotors.

I once bought a 1966 core support from a factory air conditioned car and it had the hard to find plastic fan shroud intact along with all the sheet metal baffles for A/C.

Going to wash it, insure it, register it and start driving it again. :)

Might even go crazy and buy a car cover for it, it’s a garage queen that never sits outside.

18x8” all around on 235/40-18 tires.

Crazy that a 2023 Civic Sport comes equipped that way now as standard, and it’s their lowest priced Civic.

It’s kinda like a Pontiac……you know 4 wheels and...

Standard bore size is 4.09375” for the 421.

4.120” is standard bore for the 428.

4.160” is +.040” for the 428 pistons so you’re poking that 421 .06625” over which seems excessive unless the...
