from everything i have read, the k24a1 block doesnt need to be modified

 

[Crimson_Marquis]

Wouldn't you want a K24 oil pan, not a K20?

i chose the k24a1 block because you dont have to modify it at all

 

[tomzauto]

you could prob use the k24 pan - but since im using the k20 pump i went with the k20 pan too - plus the k20 pan is aluminum and suposabley stays cooler

Well, the reason I ask is because you're running a K24 block.

Typically, the larger displacement engine you have, the larger the oil capacity. I don't honestly know if the two oil pans hold the same amount of oil. (Maybe you do) If it were me, I'd at least check it out. :up:

if you did any research on this frank you would know that it is reccomended to use the k20 oil pump. k20 pump-->k20 pan.

i was agreeing with you

? everyone says to use the k20 pump & pan so i did

 

[jdmplatano]

Bummppp because I dint know to use the a2 oil cooler u needed that s2000 part to run it

 

[drhonda]

you could prob use the k24 pan - but since im using the k20 pump i went with the k20 pan too - plus the k20 pan if aluminum and suposable stays cooler

You can use either pan. There are a few threads on here discussing it. There is even pictures of cut away pictures done by Froth I believe.

hey doc - thanks for talkin me into kpro

also my left side cv joint came apart while driving and i had to tow my car back to my shop, the joint cam apart when i removed the axles but i pushed em together when i reinstalled them

did you ever run into anything like this, did i do something wrong or do you think i just have an axle failure and need new ones

 

[ebizzle361]

Sounds like an axle failure.

I'm not sure why that is happening, I've read on here its happened to a few people. Did you get the axle all the way back in? They like to sit in a certain place and be happy.

Is the car lowered any?
