You’re right, I was never into Honda’s but this K series has me swooning over it. The HP/L factor is incredible. Not many cars make that kind of power N/A. N/A performance is exacerbated when boosted, not sure Honda intended all of this but I believe the K series is going to be the best all around 4cyl for years to come.

Great discussion, I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on the K series.

Thank you for this video! I was not really to knowledgeable about Honda’s but after this video and meeting Paul from KG performance I’m in the process of K swapping my 66 Volvo Amazon. Was gonna LS swap it but now it’s a K24A2 turbo swap! Thank you again!

The reason for the success of both the LS and the K is that neither is exotic, they are cheap and readily available with variants having been used to power all sorts of bland utilitarian vehicles, as well as more exotic stuff. Not really something you can say about the 1/2JZ, RB26, etc. which were also made in small numbers by comparison.

I bought a second hand k20a2 and am putting it into a Toyota MRS. I cannot stress enough about that timeing chain tensioner. Luckily I checked mine and it was broken on a bone stock motor of less than 100k miles. For the sake of a tiny cost save yourself the headache and replace the chain and tentioner with new oem honda ones. Oh and the k20z upper chain guide fits on the older k20a motors and is much bigger. That combined with the aftermarket lower chain guide will make the timeing almost impossible to skip even if the tentioner does break. Lastly if you are pushing big power then buy an aftermarket crank gear with a full keyway cut in it as on the stock one the small timeing pin has been known to break. But yeah thanks for another great video and I look forward to more of your k shenanigans in the future.

If you want a good sounding K series, you really have to keep the exhaust buzz under control with proper resonators and mufflers, and let the induction provide the soundtrack. The intake noise on the K series is great, and you can still make great power with a quieter high flow muffler setup.

I've swapped an H23 into a Ferrari 308. Biggest issue is the half shafts. They end up super short and wear out quickly. The hubs are way inboard on the 308. We also had to remake the upper control arms. The motor hit the arms forward mounts stock and the driveshafts didn't line up. I made billet upper arms that moved the upper forward mount back about 2". One good thing about the swap is it dropped about 300lbs!

I would love to see you guys build a Factory Five 818 with a k24 and type S trans. Looked at a lot of pictures, I think with minimal cutting of the chassis you could get it to sit in there transverse... If I didn't already have 5 projects going I would probably be ordering a kit to this myself.

Unless you're really brand specific, the only swaps worth doing for NA builds in the US are K20/24, VQ35DE/HR, or any LS.

How difficult was the swap??

for a soulful sound out of an inline 4 i think the 4age with itbs is one of the best especially the 20v ones.

I used to be huge on the k series (I am midway thru a k20 turbo swap in my lotus 7) but think an LS would have been cheaper. Just the number of v8 parts that are out there has driven the prices down in many areas. I paid $1k for the engine but then you add adapters, ecu’s,harnesses etc and it’s almost a $8-10k swap. That said- the manual v8 transmission is rarely a cheap option

I can certainly see that if you have something like a 1.6L engine how going up to a 2.4L engine has a lot of appeal, the increase in torque (especially on a light vehicle) is going to make a huge difference. That is without having to go to forced induction in order to make decent power (for a small light vehicle).

K20/K24 powered 308 is a fantastic idea.
