Max piston speed on a K-series
Hypothetically, what would be the max piston speed that a K-series engine might handle with forged internals? To be more specific, a K24A2 (TSX) with a K20A2 Head. Head can handle 8600rpm with no risk, but I think pushing the 99mm stroke of the k24 to 8000rpm might be too much. Stock: 99mm stroke @ 7500 = 4863
Option 1 (2.354 Liters): 99mm stroke @ 8000 = 5187
Option 2 (2.187 Liters): 92mm stroke @ 8200 = 4893
The best solution is to destroke it with a s2000 crank, but I want to see if I can keep the 2.4L and still rev to 8000 safely. Any suggestions?
