Correct me if i'm wrong but I believe the newer gen (06-08) K24A2's had slightly more power compared to the first gen (04-05).

You should be able to swap in any of them without any problems.

I'm guessing every engine that comes off of the line varies +/- 5hp

tho it was 10hp more

I am currently stocked with a few really nice newer K24A2's ready for shipment. These motors were pulled from running vehicles and tested thoroughly prior to being put on the market. These motors run a bit stronger than the 2004 K24A2s, usually around 10hp more off the bat.

The 06 is a bit better but the 04-05 is still a great motor...... I know where there is an 04 with 50,000 kms ready for pick up in montreal 1500

1500 too expensive!

LOL thats the going rate but your right if you shop around you might find one cheaper. I got mine from montreal for $900 but with a bit more than 50,000 kms

so then look for a different engine, cant find them much cheaper than that unless they have a lot of miles on them

1200$ for a 2005 at 50 000km i believe its cheaper

Just make sure you pull the valve cover or check all the stamps on the block and head, alot of people have been selling k24a1 & k24a8 as k24a2's lately. Thats not a bad price though as long as you don't have to ship it.
