if it was that damn easy we would have all ben doin it.i believe the 95-98 head flow better than the 91-94,now if you build a high comp motor from there then you should be golden but tuning it is goin 2 play a big role in that and modifing the intake mani

no built SOHC motors?

Wow, such a cheap and easy motor and no one does anything with it. Im looking forward to putting mine together this spring and everyone just hates and never gives it a shot. I want to see some high compression, lumpy cammed SOHC motors out here.

Wow it has been a while, I see not any huge progress has been made..
A few points:

Off the shelf headers will probably suck. If you want real power, look into a Burns collector or some Kromer Kraft headers/

Stock/factory cams are shit. You can advance and retard them all you want, but a good set of cams will go a long way

Tuning is a huge part of the pie. There is a reason that I was able to match a lot of these guys number with Just an intake, header and ECU tune. No cams, Stock exhaust. JWT may be mild, but it was a step in the right direction.


Now carry on...

Im gathering up the bits and peices of my next rebuild, and really dont have many options for high compression pistons, and my cam selection is also very limited to what im willing to use. This is my what my build will consist of.

Rebuilt KA24E, tuned for E85 on an AEM EMS
-arias 10.8 compression pistons,
-nismo R4 cam,
-OBX header, 3" apexi n1 exhaust
-Ebay $9 intake w/ k+n filter
-Lightweight fidanza flywheel
-Lightweight driveshaft

My queston is, if I use the arias 10.8 or 10.7 compression pistons will I be able to use the Nismo R4 cam and not have any issues with piston to valve clearence?

Dosent sounds like much of a build but im also going to be running this motor with E85, and tunning it with an AEM ems so im hoping to hit around that infamous 200whp mark.

they sould have valve relief built into the piston for added inssurance..they should clear though..you would have 2 check the clearance when u get them or jus askin the company your buyin them from

put clay in the cylinder, bolt the head on, turn the engine with a breaker bar ... check clay for valve clearance

Don't quote me on this but I'm pretty sure just plain old modelling clay would work fine. Just make sure you clean the valves/pistons/combustion chamber afterwards just in case of any residue left over

Yeah they have some awesome parts for the KA, just a forwarning though. If you do get their intake manifold with the plenum, check for small pinholes in the plenum itself. I did have a small one. Could have become a very annoying vacuum leak. Otherwise I love their parts!

I thought I would post this since I had a bitch of a time finding it. It is not in the FSM and it's way better to see where all the smog vacuum line go.

Nothing in the works yet, just lurking...

Have you^ (D180) had any advancements? Get to do another dyno run?
