It only took 4.5 months but most of my #fa20deletekit has arrived.

The Driveshaft hasnt showed up yet but should tomorrow.
And i still have to Wait for the Adapter plate I have no idea when that getting shipped yet.

I did a unboxing video of the Kpower 86 swap kit & went over a lil on all the major components

hedtrip · 01-16-2022, 04:23 PM

So i have started putting the K24 together as far as i can for now.
I still dont have the Adapter plate so i cant mount the trans.
So i did the Oil pan, engine mounts, coolant neck, & built up the Instake mani.

Looking good so far!

So like others i had a issue with the Dip stick hitting the oil baffle in the pan.
So i had to drill out some holes so the dip stick was actually useful.

I did email Kpower about the issue.

Ive been busy.
New video, installed some stuff.

hedtrip · 01-18-2022, 07:56 PM

So i did a test fit to see how things fit.

The drain plug does look pretty close to the subframe but not as bad as Ebush.
So i will take a hammer to it.

Since im still playing the Wait game. I was bored & vented my Valve cover.
This is a No Weld Solution.

I suppose the other thing you could have done was sacrifice the tap after starting the hole and just used a saw or angle grinder to cut the tap in half, so you had the clearance to bottom out the NPT to -10AN adapter. You could have also finished the hole you made through that section to the inner area. At least you figured out a solution. Trial by error. I know it all too well.

This is going to be awesome when done. Should have had this setup from factory rather than the FA20

hedtrip · 02-13-2022, 04:23 PM

Almost 6 months & my adapter plate is here finally.

hedtrip · 02-14-2022, 10:09 PM

Hell yeah, looks tight, literally and colloquially lol

I think this would be my method if my FA ever poops the bed
