the k20a2 comes stock on the rsx-s and the k24a4 comes stock on 7th gen 4cyl accords. I'm only really switching the heads? How much did the parts cost? Anything special, trials, tribulations?

Thanks

 

I'll be doing the same up other than using a K24a4 off an Element. You'll need to change out the pistons or the valves will tap. I'm changing mine to a TSX pistons and rods.

 

you dont need to change them.. this has bee dicussed before.. go on k20a.org all the info you will ever need

 

theres also a how-to article on sportcompactcarweb.com with all the basics, plus I'd be having a shop do it for me because I am not mechanically inclined. Just curious if anyone had done it before, and since I plan on going all-motor no real boost for awhile, I wouldn't need to worry about getting aftermarket internals.

Edit: After talking with a number of people on the k20a.org site, I discovered that if you're doing a k24a4 swap on the accord, it MUST be a manual and needs the kpro reflash in order to run correctly. So I gotta do the manny swap first before I get going with this.
