1992 KA compared to 1995 KA help

[Rubenonamission]

i have a 1991 sx ..with a spun rod bearing..is it ok if i swap a 1995 block and use the 91 intake manifold..cuz im pretty sure the 95 intake manifold prolly has differnt stuff on it..so will this work without any other mods needed?

That and swap the distributors.

[i need tires]

why dont you just use the 95 motor? instead on workin on swapping the intake and block?

[JeromeS13]

He IS going to use the '95 engine, just keeping the S13 intake manifold and distributor.

then the only other things are the air conditioning. you have to use the same bracket as the compressor you are using. I jsut leave my s13 one in the car and then swap it to the s14 block.

there is an alternator swap issue. you can convert to s14, but you cant convert back to s13 after that without either a shim or rewiring, you'll know when you get there. i like the s14 one because i got to swap to a 90 amp s14 se alt

there are a gazillion threads about swaping the intake manifolds, look around. You have to swap the s13 vacuum gallery onto the back of the s14 head if you want to make the SCV work, or jsut delete it by using the s14 upper manifold and swappign the two coolant temp sensors.

you also need to use the s13 header. You can use the s14 header, but then you need to by an sr20 downpipe.

and like he said swap the dizzys, otherwise i think everything is covered.
