What Ashikabi said, and as it was discussed before, an adapter would push the k24 engine further forward than the stock engine position, making the engine sit really far forward and making the Pure engine mounts ineffective, as they wouldn’t line up. The only way around that might be a custom bell housing, but this seems unlikely that anyone would want to produce such a thing. Even still, a remote hydraulic throwout bearing would probably be needed. After that, hopefully everything is worked out so that the input shaft fits into a custom pilot bearing. Also, the Pure header wouldn’t work because the engine would be moved further forward.

None of this seems like money is saved, and most importantly, this scenario would add front end weight.
