Any differences between an '01 24 valve block and a '93?? Say I take the 24 valve stuff and put on the 93?

 

Hey im kinda curious to.... i thought i heard somewhere that you could put a 24v head on our motors???

I know there are guys putting 24 valve heads on 12ers, and 24 valve guys putting p-pumps on 24 valves.

 

I'm not sure , so posting to watch .

 

the pistons are different between the 12 and 24 valve heads because of the injector locations, so pistons have to be changed if swaping between the two heads

 

hmmm interesting, how do the pistons attach to the rods between the generations? Pressed, bushed......

 

There all bushed

 

24 valve cam has no eccentric for the lift pump.

 

10-4 on the wrist pins.

 

A few minor things, most of the parts will bolt up. The 24 valve blocks have a turbo oil drain in the back and the early 24 valve engines have a tone ring bolted to the crackshaft right by the #6 main. 24 valve blocks also run a 12mm main bolt where the older 12 valve blocks run a 14mm main bolt.



I wouldn't waste time using a 24 valve head. Prone to cracking through the exhaust seats, little valve stems that wear funny and guides that don't wear well at all.

That too.

 

Thanks for the info thats all good to know. Guess I can let the cat outta the bag now huh?
I had an '01 all lined up to buy that chucked a rod, I was going to use the bottom end of the '93 but the deal fell through. So thats the reason I was asking anyway.
