    My K24a1 Swap Pics!! (56K Go-A-Way)

    Well, Im finally getting pics up of my K24a1 Swap. I still have a few things to work out, this has been a process over the last 3 weeks for me (Working and all), but the swap pretty much happend in 3 days. I did probably 90% of the work myself. I have driven the setup, but due to clutch issues, I havnt driven it long enough. I'll update it when I can.

    Enjoy!

    The engine bay gutted out and cleaned up a little due to the old motor EXPLODING (Broke Piston Shaft, punched holes in the motor, Dont know dont ask, it all happend with me going just over 3k RPM's)



    Just some of the stuff Iv picked up along the way for the swap. Most of everything is there, theres maybe a few screws and bolts not there (LOL)



    The new motor and tranny on the verge of being lined up, but after I clean them up and do a few things such as install the fly/clutch/p. plate.



    PROOF! Engine Code for all you doubters/haters/flammers
    (Also picked up the motor with 27,985 Miles for $930 picked up, Drove to ATL to pick it up)



    Droped the motor in, and begin to Hook up a few things here and there.



    Engine bay from the side, clearance from the hood looks TIGHT.



    Everything pretty much all bolted up. ALMOST ready to go.



    Last side shot of the car as it sits right now.



    And a shot of the azz of the car with a new can.

    Know anything about why I may not be able to get the car in gear. I bled the clutch a few times yesterday and it worked, but only for a short period of time. Also, did you have issues with the motor reving up and down between 1k and 2k rpm's with the motor warmed up?

    Thanks Davis for the DIY, but I got it workin now, but im sure someone will be able to use it, so big ups on that man.

    Im going to ride it out for some time, and maybe throw a S/C kit on there next year. My next mod (this will answer another question) Is Kpro. I want more control over how my motor runs.

    And im not sure about the numbers its putting down but it def feels ALOT more then the stock K20a3 thats for sure. Ima guess and say 170whp/130wtq somewere in that range?
