Yes, the TSX head will work. Yes you should use a Type-S oil pump assembly. -J

 

Do not get the type S head as it flows only slightly better. Instead spend the money (a lot less than a head) on TSX rods & pistons that you'll need to make this swap work.

 

so you need the tsx pistons and rods to make this work??? also not to sound like im rich because im not but i am willing to spend the money on the head since i still have my tsx block and it is fully built with 12.5.1 pistons but that is for my other project..... so if my tsx block will do better with a type s head i can purchase the k20a2 head for my all motor set up (k24a2) and pretty much mount the tsx head with my crv swap or vice a versa but i am just confused as you can see... someone tell me which way should i go

 

I won't tell you how to prioritize. I only have one car, so if my car was down I would swap over the 12:1 piston&rod set up into the K24 block and bolt down the A2 (TSX) head. Daily driver first and project a not too distant second. If you already have a daily driver I would send the TSX head out for some porting and exhaust valve resizing (+1mm). The TSX head has more material that a good head porter can use to make it out flow a TypeS head. If you've found a thread (and there are many) about putting a TypeS head on a CRV block just do as they've done substituting the TypeS head with the TSX head. I don't know how badly your motor detonated and what parts besides the block were compromised. If your crank, and/or rods, and/or pistons, are still good I'd use 'em too.

 

everything is perfect on the motor that detonated but cylinder 1 in which scratched it more less but. i put 87.5 pistons in it to compesate for the scratch. its already fix but i do have a daily driver and i was just doint this to get another car on the road.
