k24/k20 swap into jdm prelude... need help.
so i should be picking up a k24 block with 0 miles matted with a k20 head and 6 speed tranny. im getting all of this for around $1500 if everything works out as planned..
i have read multiple threads on here and i understand where everyone is coming from when they disagree with the swap but i honestly dont care. im going to do it over the next year or so and i will need some advice and help. it will be a pretty long build so dont expect results right away. as of right now i am just sourcing parts.
i will need a little bit of help and hopefully whoever on here that worked on the 5th gen k20 swap can give me some advice.
i will be getting a full wiring harness from the k24 and a hondata probably. the axles will have to be custom made im sure and my friend and i will be fabbing the mounts ourselves.
i would prefer constructive criticism but i guess not everyone will be so eager to help.
if anyone can help me with wiring schematics and what not with what will be involved with wiring id appreciate it. that is my main concern.
my friend that i am working on this with has rebuilt multiple motors, done multiple swaps and is currently fabbing a 350z tranny to his ka motor in his '95 240sx. so with that being said i feel pretty confident about this getting done.
i also read some concerns on fitment issues with the k24 block being to tall. so more than likely i will have to do some small hood modification if it comes down to it but that i will worry about later (not my biggest concern).
so there you have it... yes i am doing this to be somewhat different. i mean i already have a legalized jdm bb4 prelude so i figure why not go all out and make it my project car to turn out exactly how i want it. im sick of talking about it so i am finally going to do something about it.
any help is appreciated and
thanks in advance!!!

because im not a professional myself at just about anything
i have not criticism to give but i wouldn't anyways
sounds like a hell of a trip but best of luck to you
i will call bullshit on the 240-350 tranny swap. thats just plain stupid
. swap the whole dame vg35de with the transmission. much better results
sorry, im a nissan man by nature

everything lines up and matches perfect except the holes to bolt them up and he has to fabricate a box for the starter. he has the tranny and is getting a junk motor to line everything up before putting it on his motor. he has everything planned out perfectly and unless something crazy happens it will work. he is building a side motor ka turbo (hasnt started yet) on the side and will be using the 250 tranny because the gearing is better, 6 speed, and is unique
he got the tranny for a great price and is just doing it to do it pretty much. its gonna be sick
thanks for the comments though
