I know there are a lot of clearance problems with the K-Series in the EG/EK. I was wondering if there are any ways to deal with this, to allow you to safely lower your EG? I hope to put a k20a in my car come May, but I really don't want to have a 'high' car. My next best bet would be a b18c, but I really want to go k20a. Any thing been done about this yet?

 

this isnt the most effective answer, but ive seen plenty of lowered K-cars

Sorry, lowered wasn't the correct term.. Um, slammed?

 

maybe you can buy a lower profile oil pan ?

 

That was I was kinda shooting at... Does someone make one?

Theres the link to the whole thread....hers the pics of it being lowered

 

Nice pics!

 

Ooh aight, so the TSX pan is what I want to use. I assume that all the K-Series pans bolt up? Since he's using a (i believe) k20a2 powerplant, and now the k24 pan, and I plan on running a k20a out of a dc5r.

I don't think that is a different oil pan on the k24. I believe, if memory serves me correctly, that the k24 has a wider more shallow oil pan than the k20a. Correct me if I'm wrong Andy.

You are correct, sir.

 

Didn't Hasports came out with newer mounts that sits the motor a lil higher?

 

That looks fine to me.

I just read there site, they moved them more to the passenger side for accessory clearance, but not up for ground clearance .

damn that real low to the ground, glad u brought it back up.

 

yea, it was absolutely dumped.

I had to raise it to fit the big *** drag radials.

 

if u really wanna go all out u can get a dry sump oil system

 

dude you aint getting a k20 swap, go to the army and end yourself

 

The K24 Accord oil pan is significantly more shallow and it only costs $50 new from Honda. Be forewarned, though, that the bolts for a type-S oil pan are shouldered and will not secure a non-type-S oil pan to a K-series block .

Ask me how I know
