At long last my build is going to start (Those that know me knew I had medical problems with my youngest son, that's done and over with now) I have the K24 block (CRV) and girdle. I am going to transfer my K20a2 head, pan and oil pump over to the K24 but I had some questions, here is what I am probably going to do for the setup:
K24 block
Type S Oil Pump and pan
Type S head
TSX crank with RSX crank pulley
11.0:1 pistons (not sure who to use yet, suggestions?)
Rods (not sure yet either)
Clutch (got a CM clutch sitting around brand new)
ASP header and exhaust
RBC Manifold
Cams (secret)
injen cai with v stack.
My biggest questions are:
In terms of long term reliability (chunky you can chime on this if you want) what pistons and rods have shown the least amount of wear and excessive friction?
Oil squirters - i dont remember if the TSX had them (dont think they did) but should I do the whole wristpin oiling or just get the installed in the block and get an oil cooler from a k20a2 on it?
Everything else I know but if anyone has tips or tricks they would be appreciated.
