24v head on 12v?
What is the purpose, airflow? I have heard of it done before, just curious as to what all you have to do. Is it a straight up swap, or does it require anything like changing pistons?
|
The 24v head would flow more. Pistons would have to change. Inectors may not work quite right, or need to be custom. They are different from 12v to 24v
|
Everything has to be changed,ie: cam, pistons in the end you get a p-pumped 24valve
|
So would it sound more like a 12v, or a 24v???
|
an 18 valve?
Sorry, couldn't resist.[duhhh][duhhh] |

I was wondering about that, too. My guess is that due to the rocker arm bridges there is a different rocker arm ratio, so the cam has to be different... just a guess.
|
Cam would work.......you need to change the pistons(different chambers)injectors(correct thread & pop-off) injector lines and headgasket.
|
Cool, there was a debate on another board where one guy claimed you could just throw the head on, and another said you had to change pistons, then the other guy said no you don't....etc....I wanted to get the info before I posted about something I did not actually know about for sure. I hate it when people do that.

24 valve injectors work fine the way they are

Stock???? there are better ones

The combustion chambers in the 12v is set to the ex side of the piston and the combustion chambers on the 24v is in the center of the piston therefore the 24v head has the inj in the center of the head and would miss the combustion chamber of the 12v piston and wash the walls of the cyl. of oil and score the wall.
