Dc5 are a let down standard should have came from factory with 250hp for that heavy body

Is this the car with svm cams

Did you sell the shell lad

What power did this car make after how did manifold perform for you

Nice car pic of dyno print out buddy

The k20 liked to rev pulled very well up top revved to 9250rpm and made nice tq down low as we'll but the k24 you don't have to rev it as much has mad tq from 2000 rpm rev limited to 8600 rpm ,I would say the k24 you don't have to drive the **** out of it to pull strong

New bearings new head gasket new oil pump

ep3 oil pump is prb oil pump same as dc5 oil pump so yes you could use it Marley rods or wosner rods any good brand name don't use Chinese rods

If you want to use full potential of dic cams yes but you don't have to ,if you used standard cams your peak power would be around 7500 to 7800 probley make around 250hp 195ft and you could use standard parts then ,rods and oil pump are weak points in k24 if revved above 7500
