hey i have been reading around the forum for quite a while and was wondering if anyone could possibly clarify what i need to swap out my napz 2.4 2x4 to a 89 240sx ka24 single cam. i just rebuilt the whole thing top to bottom and really need to know what parts i need. i really would love to have a list of parts as i dont have much time to search around for them and any help is much appreciated.

here is what i have now

ka24e engine from an 89 240sx 9.1:1 c/r fresh rebuild
wiring harness from the same 89 240sx
computer from the same 89 240sx
ka24e upper motor mounts
2001 xterra oilpan
modified oil pick up tube for rear sump conversion

i know that the motor bolts right up to the transmission no problems at all and that my new oil pan and pick up will make the clearance for the crossmember and swaybar/ steering stuff. i have read that the 240sx starter is mounted differently and some modification is needed. i dont remember where i read it but it did bother me and just want some clarification. maybe some one can help me with a link to a whole build thread from start to finish. again any help is much appreciated

I did this on a 85 4x4... however I used a truck block.

I am kinda going off on a tangent here but I work at a junk yard and I found a toyota previa supercharger. would it be possible to put it on my new ka24e? and how would I know how much boost I will get from it? I think I could fit it where my ac is supposed to be
