KA24de block with KA24e crank

[chanklas]

Will a Ka24de block work with a ka24e crank? I am asking this because i pulled apart my KA24de Engine apart and the bearings are spun and the crank is no good. But i have a ka24e long block engine laying around. So will the two work together or will i have to buy a new crank for ka24de?

Same bore and stroke, that is all I know for sure. I'm half way sure the rod journals are the same as well, but even factory cranks use oversize bearings sometimes, according to shop manuals.

The cranks are the same, but the ka-e has (3) key ways. The de has (2). I have a ka-e crank in my de block. I made a spacer to take up the clearance between the pully and the bolt.
