Now i have been offered good money for engine gearbox the lot!!!! and i dono if i should go build a beast of a k20 for it ie high comp with cams etc or what ta do !! >>>>>

any imput welcome!!!

is it worth doing or should i leave goodenough alone????

thanks:please:
 
do you enjoy the b series? or do you feel its a bit torqueless?? If so K series that mother ****er!!
 
K series FTW:D It's a quick car as is but if you do what your planning to do with the K series it will be in a totally different league
 
all about $$$

id go K, but if you enjoy the crossover noise in a B :/
 
thats a tuffy but a tuned k-series would be sweet :dance:

A fabled rumour. Been out in more than one Kswapped car and heard several exhaust/intake combination. Doesnt sound any less wild.
 
depends what you use the car for really and budget

i would say short ratio gearbox if you want to track it and looking for some immense fun firing through the gears, but K series if you are wanting more of a jump in power :nerv:
 
forget the K, sell just the B head and bottem end, buy yourself a H22/H23a/F20b and the QSD H2B kit and walk on K's all day errrday
 
K-series all the way if you want to be faster! More potential in it, 6speed gearbox.

wouldnt be a fan off those engines mate!!! plus not too many ks have been built ta the spec im thinking off!!:naughty:
 
First movie is weird...they are both as fast and all at a sudden it's like the K20 is standing still, he probably let his gas pedal go. The second is nice, but the H22 guy counted so he had pretty much 0 reaction time where as the K20 driver had to react to his words. Better post up some dyno's with similar mods/stock to have a reliable comparison. Besides that, the H22 engine is more in the front so nose-heavier (i believe it even sits a bit in front of the axles) which negatively affects handling and it misses a gear compared to the K20.
