if i change pistons..crank..head etc what do i need to change a k20a3 into a k20a2? is it possible?

dont be an a**hole and say grind off the numbers and stamp k20a2

 

no clue on an answer but i like your avatar. free bump

 

lmao i like urs better

 

bummmmp

 

changing the head and tranny would be a good start

 

ty already on the list would thois work?

k20a2 head
rsx-type s tranny
k20a2 pistons
k20a2 crank

would this work? also is the k20a3 vtec?

 

kinda the wrong forum...not many people here familiar with the k-series engines...

but b or d series...

 

imo, i would rather just buy a complete A2 .. check out http://www.k20a.org ..

 

I believe the ep3 k20a3 has the weaksauce ivtec i dunno check out ephatch.com for better info!

 

No you cannot do this. Swap complete longblocks sir.

i would listen to anything litterbox had to say about a k series motor...

even if he told me they suck, i would believe him

 

why doesnt the a2 head work on the a3 block?
I was sure it worked on the k24 afterall...

 

dont forget the k20a2 intake manifold as well.
but honestly the cost of the tranny, crank, rods, pistons, head, intake manifold, and all teh ebarings, rings and gaskets it seems that buying complete swap is a lot smarter.

You can put an a2 head on an a3 block although I'm sure there are some parts that you'll need to make it work. I haven't ever researched it.

 

i read on one of the other k fourms that u can do it but staying stock engine internals( shirt block) with a k20a2 head is not worth the time some one had said it has given em 35 whp but only .1 off the quater at 13.3 or sumthig like that


also arent k20a3 cheaper because i had seen some k20a3 go for around 500 dollars

 

also if this doesnt work the k-series is alot more faster than my d16z6 with i/h/e

and i was also thinking about building one which i have in my garage which is outside of the car ( i am selling 2 d16's that i was building to a friend for 500 and i contacted someone that is willing to sell me a k20a3 long block for 500)

i dont even care about this car its kinda a project i picked up on the side i had the money so i just bought the car its not my daily so i can expletive with it
