i was just wondering if any one know of some sites that have lots of ka24de part. im trying to build a high reving ka that is NA. and what brand is better for all the parts needed like valves and valve springs and retainers, pistons and rods, and do you guys know of a place in cali that does custom porting and polisihing, and crank balancing, there are non in my area. im going to try and get it to rev atleast to 10k i was just wonder where i can get custom part like a shorter stroke rods and anything else thats needed =D

im going to try and get it to rev atleast to 10k
im sorry i just find that funny

:lol2:

personally i say dont waste your time....but if you do that will be cool. hmmm as far as sites try jimwolftechnology they have some ka parts but i dont think they have the custom shit your looking for.

10000 is a tall order on a KA, undersquare engines will always wheze out on the top end. even at 8500 something is probably closer to poping than a 6500 Redline boosting .75 Bar

Plus, for the power levels you looking for everything will most likely need to be custom From the Headers to Ignition to Intake

i was thinking about the same thing not too long ago and started a thread on it. i decided to go KA-T though.

well i mean i wanted to do it because im perty sure no one else has and shortining the stroke will alow me to rev higher faster and will move the power band up a notch i guess your right. it would all have to be cutom work. i guess i better start taking some classes =\ , unless you guys know of a shop that does custom work anywhere in the US?

yeah, but if you just get shorter rods then your pistons TDC is gonna drop more the more you shorten the rods and your CR is gonna drop alot, so then you have to get pistons with moved pin holes, and if you get the rod too shart and try building the piston dome back up to normalhight or above to up your compression, then you are going to have some heavy pistons, and you wanna take an engine thats stock redline is 6500 up to 10K. I dont see any way that it will be worth the trouble at all.

yeah you do have a point, but i do like a hard project. thats why i chose NA

do you also like an EXPENSIVE project?

actually i wouldnt mind, it would be a long process though
