anybody have an extra 2.4 for boost build?
Monday, November 27, 2006 3:04 PM
Mods please be cool about this because this is a last resort . If I cant turn to the boost forum who can I turn to? I have done my share for the j body community and dont see why this little thread should be a problem. Thankyou in advance... Looking for and extra 2.4 for boost build up. Dont say check the classifieds because I did and there is nothing close to me or in my price range. I called the yards in and around Chicagoland and have found nothing. So if anybody from the Wisconsin or JBOM or Chi town have an extra 2.4 motor please help. Preferably a 2000+ without egr style head. Spun Rod bearing is fine . Does not need to be running but definetely not destroyed. Again thankyou.

the head doesn't matter if it has the EGR deal or not. Just make sure you're using a newer style exhaust manifold gasket that does not have the EGR provision. the newer ones will not have the extra hole on the gasket for EGR.

sensor are all the same locations , and no problems there

the heads all have the egr ports , some say that some didnt go all the way through , but ive yet to see 1 that was blocked , all ive seen go all the way through

the difference is the combustion chamber volume and shape , which is better no one really knows

ive got a rod knock 98 id sell cheap
