I am wondering if anyone has done head work to the KA24E, I am going to port and polish the cylinder head myself, use stainless steel swirl polished undecut valves, Manganese-Bronze valve guides.

What I am not too sure about right now is the solid lifters and camshaft. Does anyone have any insight on this?
If your going to do all that with the manifold, just have one custom made for you. Contact Lance at JGS Precision, he'll make you one. Made all my custom parts, and does a great job. www.jgstools.com/turbo/index3.html

The KA24E was used profusely during the previous decade by SCCA NA guys. Geoff at Colt Cams has been working a lot with people from ka-t.org in producing really effective turbo cams for the SOHC. The cam should be cut a little different to run with solid lifters if you want him to work with you on that, he should.

Here's my custom intake manifold Lance made for my SOHC.
