How much 4 this build

[@Kesdaproducer]

What’s the chances of getting a list for parts for this build? From top to bottom?

If i were rich how much power could i get out of my 3.8 l 3800 supercharged v6 in my pontiac grand prix gtp?

hey im looking to build a eg hatch with a k24. But was wondering that k24 to use. I know there are different ones like the k24a2, k24z7 and the list goes on. What is the best to go with for most amount of hp you can get out of it, and also the price. Im just looking to build 500 hp reliable

[@user-nn5bh8rn3r]

h!mike,may i know which turbo kit you used in you're k24 engine build/tnx buddy ride safe.

[@Jeffball610]

A tip I learned from Jafromobile about cleaning parts, is to use coffee filters. They're white, leave no lint, and are super cheap. It's really easy to see if the part is as clean as you'd like with them.

[@diymike]

nice, I just started watching his videos

[@Alex43237373]

Jeffrey Ball he said they actually do leave lint he just uses compressed air to blow the lint out

[@Jeffball610]

@@Alex43237373 you are correct. I realized that after submitting it. It definitely leaves less lint than blue towels though, but you should always use air after wiping down things.

[@MrLandslide84]

Microfiber cloths if your REALLY worried, then degrease or toss. I'm not worried though, it's paper, I just change oil after break in.

One thing I love about engine builds, even with a background in building old pushrod V-8s I can fairly easily understand and appreciate the design elements in modern engines. They still work fundamentally the same way especially when it comes to modifying to make big power, they just go about it in a different manner. Even though muscle cars are more my "thing" I do really want to build a legit badass import, there's just so much technology to take advantage of and it's cheap because it's still OEM technology.

[@andrewwenner2781]

Yeah but with Honda’s you have Spoon if u want the engine BUILT, Skunk2 for aftermarket parts, Mugen for body parts, and many cost less then OEM too

[@mopartron3030]

@@andrewwenner2781 there is at least as much stuff for domestic makes, trust me. There's an entire company dedicated to only making and selling parts for big block Chrysler V8s, just named 440Source lol. You can build an entire 1st-gen Chevy Camaro from aftermarket parts it's actually been done before in magazines and such

[@rudyleon7321]

im with you on that . my old monte had a mild 383 was a lot of fun . looking forward to building up a friends honda maybe ill try it on my g37 . love forged internal na tune

@@andrewwenner2781 they need billet engines, which is not made by japaneese people, which every single fast k serie is not even japaneese or honda, its american engines built entirely in usa, the vw ea888 and the gm ecotec are much cheaper and better options

Thank you for showing us how to build an engine. I personally love mechanics but Im still learning and this has been very helpful. Thank you 👍🏼

Nice work! Finally an extreme high Horsepower Honda. I enjoy the detailed explanations on assembly. Please keep it up and thoroughly explain the tuning process if you can. Thanks !

[@km6832]

The k20 series is such an interesting design block and rotating assembly wise, fully counter weighted crank, girdle 5 bolt mains. Yet the block is open deck and all aluminum. Good engine weird design thats all, but they make a 1000hp easy so praise somebody

[@123coolx]

This was the nicest thing I saw while I was high

[@XSTAYUPX]

hope to see the motor for years to come!

[@user-kz2op2ge6u]

Despite the fact that this engine is tough and long-lasting, it is not without problems. One main component on the engine that can fail is the timing chain sensor. The problem started to develop when the company switched timing belts to connect the crankshafts with the camshafts. Closing the gap of the piston by bringing it closer to the chain by a single tooth is the easiest solution to the problem, but it might not be a permanent solution. Other issues with this engine include that the camshaft can wear out easily and the idle is sometimes rough. Leaking engine oil has also been reported, which makes keeping up with regular oil changes essential to maintaining proper health of the Honda K24. Some owners have also noted hearing engine noise upon starting the car, which can signal a deterioration (and necessitate replacement) for the engine’s VTC gear.

[@steponmemommy9323]

You are absolutely correct. The VTEC solenoid gasket often leaks, the VTC actuators go bad and cause a grinding noise on a cold startup, the valves often need adjusting frequently to keep them quiet, and the engine HATES, HATES, HATES aftermarket starters and will often be a source of long cranks.

[@jonnyboy2504]

Not into Honda’s but I like the video and what you did 👌🏻

[@tommylyeah]

I think you should check out a Sound Performance Quick Spool Valve, they're tight.

[@samsonian]

I’m surprised with such a high-horsepower specific output build you didn’t get the block gasket-ring machined. That little copper ring really helps when you’re running super-high cylinder pressures.

[@abcidebrianmercado5997]

You dont check your rod bearing clearance? Only the main bearings?

[@flinch622]

Nice build. What did you aim for on compression? Will you use an oil accumulator to help extend bearing life on that turbo, and if so... how big? Looking forward to seeing that run...
