bare bones ka24e

[DAN510]

hey all

need to trim the fat off my ka24e, IE... whatever components I can remove specificaly from the intake manifold...

The engine is for my 72 510, which does not require (air care)

the egr is already gone,what I need to know is what else can I remove for bare bones operation, And also would it be beneficial to remove the "swirl control valve" setup???

pretty much anything that has a vacum hose connected to it.. except your brake booster (if you want it) and fuel presure regulator

I've heard mixed things about pulling the swirl controller. I have heard that it will pick up a little in the top, but you lose more of the bottom end. The weight savings of pulling that part is pretty minimal from what I've seen. Dump your PS, AC, and all the additional pulleys from them though

all emmisions crap

im trying to remove all my emissoins stuff, and im having difficulty reaching my fat hands through these tiny spaces..

get rid of as many vacuum lines as you can. I hate those stupid things. Nissan is retarded for all the vacuum lines they use.

what about the cranksahft pulley?? I'm only running the alternator, no p/s no a/c, the front part of the crank pullley seems to have a "balancer" built into it....

I've seen aftermarket "billet" pulleys that don't have that extra wheight.

Any problems with removing the front half of the pulley???
