Can you turn a 89 SOHC in to a DOHC?wellhung2004 01-08-2004, 11:50 PM Can You? and what all does it take? Also, where can i get a powdercoated valve cover for it? mrflip69 01-09-2004, 12:41 AM ECU, wiring harness, power steering lines... dunno what else? If you're going to turbo, research the SOHC more. Engine rebuild is inevitable with both, so why not save some cash if you can get pretty close results to a DE? stealthj 01-09-2004, 12:50 AM hmmm......i hope he does not mean just add another cam to the sohc...might be just the way it was asked but yeah....mr flip said it right and u can just powder coat it yourself.... u dont need to buy a whole new valve cover,, J SPEC SilEighty 01-09-2004, 02:24 PM wellhung2004, studies show that the majority of males who talk about having a big penis in fact have a very small one.

Just a little bit of info.... woah where did that come from J SPEC SilEighty 01-09-2004, 02:39 PM woah where did that come from the dudes username stealthj 01-09-2004, 03:00 PM oooh lol lazysmurff 01-09-2004, 04:25 PM studies have also shown that people who go out of their way to point that out are also compensating for said small member Suislide 01-09-2004, 04:55 PM back on topic please. if you're planning on adding another cam to the KA-E...then buddy, give your head a shake and go do alot of research. if you're simply planning on putting a DE in your '89-'90 240SX, then it's a simple swap. there's various lines (as mr.flip said) that need chaging on the DE as the locations are different, but other then that, it's a direct bolt in since the chassis was not changed from '90 to '91. if you're planning to turbo the DE once you get it, then just stick with your E. both are capable of holding boost, and both will need strengthening/rebuilding before-hands anyways. wellhung2004 01-09-2004, 08:28 PM Well, i really wanted to know if i could swap the head, and valve cover, for DOHC ones. would it fit or work? J SPEC SilEighty 01-09-2004, 08:47 PM nope. can't put a dohc head on a sohc block. wellhung2004 01-12-2004, 01:18 AM why is that? the bolt pattern wont fit, or.... J_Spec_NiTeMaRe 01-12-2004, 01:49 AM why is that? the bolt pattern wont fit, or.... The dual cam head is larger, probably twice as wide as the single cam(because it has another cam.) Just wont fit. wellhung2004 01-12-2004, 03:32 PM dammit. well thanks Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
