moved to ka-t section.

year the engine was built has little to do with how much abuse it can take, aside from less likely to be high-mileage. if you are going to rebuild it anyways, you might as well pick whatever the best deal is.

the ka already has a long stroke, how do you figure increasing it further would benefit compared to the negative attributes that come with it?

laziness is no excuse not to research this topic, i can only imagine what would happen if you went to build a turbo setup based only on forum hearsay and a power goal.

good luck.

First of all you'll be lucky if someone wants to help you, because you dont want to help yourself. The questions you ask have been answered, and answered again and again. If your to lazy to do the research, how could you possibly think you are ready to rebuild your engine... ect....

Read the first three stickies on the Ka-T forum, they will answer your questions and bring you up to speed if you want to get serious about turbo charging your 240.

Heres a link to a very recent thread about a Stroker kit. zerothread/255699

Im not really trying to be an ***, but your asking us to spoon feed you the information you need to learn yourself.
