you know you can put the head studs after you put the head on the block, just make sure you have the dowel pins in first. Less chance of scratching the head machined surface or have shavings falling between the head gasket and the head
Great video your videos are so in depth and you really take a- lot of time and care when making your videos that will set you apart from the rest of the people making videos keep up the good work
Nice work walking thru the whole process..... Still figuring out if I will boost the k20 or do a k24 built for my RSX........ Already hit 12 sec with my previous B series setup...... Hope you hit the 300 whp on your new set up
They should make 8 carbon fiber redirect flow things in between the rest of the Pistons for an open deck block. Put one at Each corner and Center cylinders to help keep the deck steady under heavy loads. Make them with compound so they get harder with heat. Holding your sleeves solid as posibly.
that thing is a coolant diverter.if using k20z3 or euroR heads,(RBC-1or2 or 3) and tsx , u need to put it in there.if using RSX-S head,u need to take it out.a lot info on it out there
Did you open up your headlights and put blue led strips in? I have those SpecD headlights, and I was thinking of trying to retrofit rgb led strips for the halos and running light strip
Hi. An awesome build. I’m currently looking to build one myself and I’m so glad to have found your channel. I see your in Jersey, what part? I’m out of Vineland. I’m going about this build all by myself with no help so again, thanks for all the info.
Extension doesn’t affect torque wrench as long as it’s straight. You can put a 2’ or 20’ and it should still torque whatever ftlbs as long as it’s accurate.
hey mate great video once more, i have a replacement engine and i want to paint it, is it ok and possible to paint it while its assembled? Its not possible to dissasembe the engine atm, Its not on engine bay yet, any tips?
So I have a 2007 civic si and been looking to do this build. If all i wanted was to just swap my bottom for a k24, is everything you did in this video sufficient enough for that? As in I should start my swap with this video and onward? (im not looking to rebuild the bottom or head as of now)
I have a 2009 Acura TSX K24. I see that my oil is leaking and pooling where it is written "R40 R". I changed the valve cover gasket, but still leaks. Help!!
I notice you didn't use copper spray on the head gasket?is there a reason why you didn't use any.just curious.but awesome job love watching the videos.
the cometic head gasket seals very well, it doesnt need copper spray. And honestly ive never used that spray on any head gasket. I dont really believe in that.
What IS IT with people miss pronouncing words like "tighten", and "written"? There are "T"'s in those words. It's not "tigh' en"... it's not "wrih' en"!!!
That rubber pice in the block is called a coolant separator, and you need it in there so dont forget! Or the coolant temp wont reach operating temp
Do I need the even if I’m turboed?
@@empaige89 yes you need it I’ve seen people forget to put one in after replacing short block and the head will have to come back off

Yep X2 on this
Yea bro that is for the coolant
even the head gaskets are head specific.rsx-s head has different than k20z3 head gasket.
Love the video
is there a need to do a piston to valve clearance? why or why not?
Bro Cometic do make a 87.5 gasket. I can show you a picture of the package I still have. I just did a headgasket on my boosted K

Oops I didn't know the washers went on a specific way 😂 just did a gasket swap for the first time on my fk8. Chat am I cooked.
using the 88mm head gasket... what is your exact cylinder bore? is it still 87mm or 87.5?

Thumbs down, dont give people totally wrong information, what are you even talking about. Learn about metal and what torque loss is.

What did you use to clean the surface of the head and block?
What head gasket thickness do you think I should go with? Planning to go Force induction. Rebuilding a k20/k24
If you have the stock 11:1 or higher compression pistons, I'd get a thicker head gasket (compared to oem) to lower the effective compression ratio

Would you need a k24 crankshaft for the k20 to go ontop ?
hey can i go k20z3 on my k24a instead of k20a2 ? and whats the pros and con thank you

Instant gasket is needed on the valve cover

What viscosity grade of oil will you use?
Hi
Good job.
You use the k20a2 head?
lube only goes on the top of the washer. Not the bottom.
I used the molly lube on the bottom of the threads on my d series... Am I screwed? : (

That's an expensive manual
