rebuilding my buddies k20
hey dc5 and ep3 guys....as the title sais im rebuilding my buddies k20a2
i rebuilt a lot of b series engine but never messed much with the k20s...his is out of an 02 rsx
im looking for a litle advice from someone who has messsed with the k20s a little more then me...advice such as stuff to look out for and the things that you should replace on a k20 that u wouldnt on a b series...(such as timing chain tensioner, ect.)..
also will i need any special tools other then typical engine tools?..im aware that the crank pulley can b a b**** to get off without that special tool that holds the crank pulley so where can i get that tool?
thanks for any advice!

the subframe is easy. although going up and out prolly is best if you dont have a lift. i know on EP3's you have to pop the front bumper off, radiator bracket, radiator, and a few other things but its not bad coming out.
