Post

Hello and im new here. an I been trying to search a good reading about this matter but the only readings that i been found is how to convert fwd to rwd.

I have a 240sx with a CA18det swap and I would like to know if parts from a FWD CA18de will fit in the RWD.
Right now I found a good deal to buy a complete FWD CA18de engine and I would like to have some spare parts in case something brake in my engine.
Well the most important question here is if i can use the head from a FWD and place it on a RWD, the valves in my RWD, some are bad, also to know if the crankshaft if the same, because the FWD crankshaft is std like brand new and my RWD already is running .50mm bearings.
Any advise or help would be very appreciate. thanks

I have ca18de pistons and head with a det block and crank/rods. Also used ca18de rebuild kit for bearings/gaskets, 88 pulsars are useful as part bins :) (and i drive one anyway)
