    k24 pros and cons

    Well ive being doing a lot of reading, and havent seen any thread that talks about the dissadvantages of a k24 swap. i know its got more potential than any other block, i think and that is the cheapest...
    but what dont you like about a swap like that??
    maybe mpg?? anything else??

    this statement excludes the k24a2 right?

    pros: torque, and price for the "lower" end blocks (a4/a1)

    cons: i dont own one so i dont know, if others could chime in, not a simple drop in like a k20/a2

    the weak rods go for just about all the K series motors. THe K20a3 I had broke a piston shaft. (LOL)
