CA20 in a 240

[long shot]

Is It possible to drop the CA20 from a 86 200sx into an 89 240sx with out too much modification. I have the engine, ECU and transmission lying around and was wondering If I could do this since I am having some bad luck getting my stock ka engines to last more than 1.5 months a piece (second one went yesterday)

maybe you should stop running the KAs without oil

no just kidding why do they not last long?

about your engine i dont know. sorry

I have no idea, I dont beat on it hard, it stays lubed but they keep blowin on me. i'm kinda gettin tired of buying KA's

yeah well i did some more digging before i opted to change my rod bearings and i'm glad i did. Apparently my chain guide detonated on my and my cam gear skipped a half revolution but i replaced the parts with one from my old engine so its all goin good tomorrow
