    ^^^^This is a very valid question. Either frank motor or start with a k24a2.

    Is the K24A2 a straight swap, other than Kpro?

    who would have thought that last week when I posted in this thread that I would be stuck doing a swap myself, 2 days after posting my intake valves all kissed the pistons and now I am needing to swap. I'm sticking with just a bolt-on k24a1 though because I have to pay for labor since I don't have the time or tools for a swap.

    ouch. How did that happen?

    you should contact Papituyo... he's in the same state as you and has some killer deals on k-motors.
    I got my k24a2 from him. Stand up guy. His motor has also stood up to my abuse. Turned over on the first try.

    I was running skunk2 cams and my tensioner failed and I wouldn't be surprised if there was install error involved somewhere. I was having oil pressure issues since the install so I was running a higher vtec point that seemed to work well or so we thought.

    I would contact Dave, but I doubt he can beat a 47k mile k24a1 with 6 month warranty for $750 delivered to the shop
