Default K20a2 full build

Hey Guys,


Looking some insight into a full engine build on a 03 RSX type S.

At this point up top I'm leaning toward Crower cams, manley valves, crower springs and retainers.

In the Bottom I'm thinking CP pistons and manley rods (compression has yet to be decided, may boost the engine also)
The engine is out and the body is getting prepped for paint. Lots of time to decide on the internals.

Just wondering what combinations have been successful for you guys, Boosted or N/A!

I was thinking about going that route. I would like to stick with the k20a2 and aim for 350-400 hp. Just for the fact that it can be difficult to find K24 blocks where I live (Halifax, Nova Scotia) I don't want to buy something from afar and have it shipped, just for the simple issue of not knowing what its going to look like.

For that amount of horsepower only boost makes sense.
