why yes, yes i am.
i'll also have some toluene for special days
5 gallons of toluene + 10 gallons of 91 = 15 gallons of 97 octane in my tank w00t!

You should become a member of an extremist militant Islamic faction if your new motor doesn't fire up! Neither that, or we'll finish up "SEPPUKU BY CAMSHAFT"!

used tranny fluid? 'cause i think used tranny fulid can kill, but new tranny fluid will just lub urself up for some... yah. when in doubt, drink the 87 octang in the fuel tank, than go out for a smoke. :rl:

p.s. props for doing the NAKA! it has been my dream, one day, ONE DAY, i will build it.

What kind of numbers are you expecting?

A local guy has a ka24e with a nismo cam or something, paceshitter header, injen intake, port and polish stock pistons and such, and he is claiming 300whp.

Mr. Badlose
08-16-2004, 04:20 PM
The local guy reminds me of a guy I met in Tahoe who said that he could put $200 Ferrari "headers" on his Prelude.

Hey...the cam timing is off.

To use a '91 exhaust cam for an intake cam, you rotate it 4 teeth...

There should be exactly 8 links between the dots..you're at 7.5.

Just FYI. Here's (http://forums.freshalloy.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB9&Number=67778031)a quick reference if you're unsure...but trust me, I've run that setup on 2 different KAs.

Sweet pics of the buildup process.

I started laughing soo hard when I got to the 8th page. LOL
I came across the same problem when rebuilding my KA, sitting there looking at the FSM and looking at my timing stuff and not having anything match up. that was a nightmare...

Cool article/pics though :boink:

thanks for the info. i had read it's 3 teeth, and it looked right when i compared it to the intake cam, but'll go look again if you're sure of it.

word around the campfire is that i'll be approaching 200 to the crank. who knows? i'm not gonna throw some bullshit numbers out there. i'll dyno it when it's all done, and then we'll see.

Lucky ... you've got so many people willing to help you out with the swap. It's lookin good...:) maybe ill eventually come by and check it out :D

Andrew Bohan
08-25-2004, 12:28 AM
ahh i figured out why what i was going by had the cam rotated only 3 teeth. the other cam was rotated 1 tooth clockwise, so they were 4 teeth apart, just the chain was off by one tooth...

thanks orion, you prolly saved me a headache and a few hours of troubleshooting

driftaholic, ever thought about porting the throttle body and extrude honing the manifold?

Andrew Bohan
09-04-2004, 02:06 AM
i thought about a lot of stuff. a six week swap when i told the lady who's house i'm doing it at it would be a week wasn't one of the things i thought of.
fun things will come when time and money permit.

say, that's a good quote
