k24a head same as k20a head ?

Post by legoina » Thu Sep 15, 2011 3:55 pm

Hi guys,
k24a2 and k24a4 has got vtec on its exhaust lobe. Right ?

The thing is, is it the same as those found in k20a2 (DC5 type R engine) ?
can aftermarket cams for k20a2 head fit into k24a2 head ?

cause i already got a R head on my car, and looking for a k24block, but i only manage to find one whole k24a2 /k24a4 engine. and the shop refuse to sell seperately.

please adcive, if its the same, i could just put the whole engine into my car.

very good read.

Exhaust ports and bolt pattern are identical, but headers are not interchangeable. On the TSX the headers fit between the engine and subframe, on the RSX between the subframe and firewall and as a result are quite differently shaped.


does that means exhaust header for k20a2 engine can be bolted onto the k24a2's head, the only thing is to just buy another header that can clear the car's body?



Correct ?
