  • We've had this 1972 Datsun 1200 for a few years now. Car was purchased out of Florida and had a turbo 13b rotary. Has been 8.0s with the rotary and were looking to make it faster with the Honda K series! A K24 out of an Acura TSX will hopefully get us to run faster than a 8.0. Be sure to keep an eye out for more videos of this car! You wont want to miss it!

    Head work on these motors are not really needed under 1000 wheel, these heads flow awesome out of the box. Is the mock up motor a k24a1? If so thats the best flowing k24 head and iirc outflows even the type r head, the TSX head is only better cause its a "true" ivtec head. Its sought after more so cause of the camshafts and rocker setup, but its the smallest port k-series out there so it doesn't flow so well. Honestly for what you want to do i think the "mock up" motor you bought is a better deal to build off of.

    • @HorsepowerDepot
      @HorsepowerDepot  3 роки тому

      I have a k24a1 and a k24a2 so the a1 out flows the tsx a2 head? I’ve got so much to learn with these engines lol. I’m doing a vtec killer setup so pretty much I need the best flowing head. Thanks for the info!
