    hey davis,

    add some information on :
    RBC clearance-Its already there
    k24a2 waterport mod-Its in there but no detailed info. I'll see what I can find.
    a2/z3 pump install-Just added sir. Good idea
    k20z3 heads on k24a-I guess I'm failing to see how this differs from an a2 head swap with the coolant port issue.
    transmission swaps-be more specific sir.

    Ok well I just drove my swap home and got the famous overheat codes. I thought I burped it already but it took another half gallon when I got home. I ran the heat and I still don't get any heat.

    Also I'm getting some pretty weird noises from the pulley area. It sounded like the idler but I can't really tell It's actually kind of scaring me. I'm gonna take the belt off and try to figure out which one is the culprit.

    lol, maybe i should have read the post instead of just skimming through it.

    trans- which would be ur personal choice . i.e.- 5spd for boost, 02-04 rsx-s for n/a, (but that might be for a diff diy?), which clutch /flywheel to buy (car specific),

    Jack up the front of the car as far as you can and then burp it

    One little item to note, if you use a Z3/K24A2 style head(coolant outlet on the end of the head rather than the side like the A2 and A3) requires you to use a matching headgasket(not by the block as is usually customary) and the installation of a coolant divertor.

    They have significantly different headgaskets and resulting coolant flow.

    I see what you are saying about the head gasket. How about the coolant diverter...I'm afraid I lost you there.

    Ah the little coolant divertor, it is also called a Partition Plate, It is placed into the cooling jacket right between the inlet from the waterpump and the #1 cylinder sleeve. It helps route coolant across the front of the cylinders where the A2 style engine overheats and causes block warpage on the #2 and #3 cylinders, even without any other signs of overheating, like temp #'s.

    I disassembled a S2k oil pump yesterday and it appears to have the same rotors as the Z3 pump. I couldnt actually check measurements, or do a side by side comparison, as the Z3 oil pump is all assembled and at my home shop, but they appear to be the same. Another positive for the Z3 pump.
