FAIL!!!



To help with the question, SR if you are lazy. KA can be reliable if you do it right and have a good tune.

As per the Technical part of the question:Our company Formula D car, was a stock bottom end SR20 with a built cylinder head, 2871r turbo, Power Fc. Made 343 rwhp and 315 lb tq. About 2/3 way thru the season, one or more of the cylinders lost compression, piston rins seat wore out.Replace pistons and rods with CP / Eagle combo....Running strong ever since... I recommend using the SR motor.

Its a preference thing.

KA-T can make your 350WHP for cheaper. KA is a very reliable platform with a good tune, I.E. Enthalpy.

I know im getting an SR, but my KA has had it. Not really in the market for a rebuild.

If:

A) Does not smoke.(Oil)B) Has good compression.C) Youre willing to do some KA research.

I reccomend the KA to anyone then. Its as reliable as an SR. Plus more torque. Also a better head design IMO.

True that. No pesky rocker arms to fly off at high rpm. Too bad the bottom end can't handle it.

Pretty much, i think thats the KAs downfall, a Half-Counterweighted crankshaft and little bit weaker rods.

But, a KA with good compression, I would take to 400WHP on an Enthalpy Tune ANY Day.

Well, it would be better than them doing it to every thread that they want dead. I could care less. IMO, it might have eliminated one kid from creating the topic this week. Great. Awesome.

Sand in my vagina? Nah, just your face.

Wait, so there is no sand in your vagina, but there is sand in my face?? I do get lots of dirt on my face and in my eyes though, so you are right I need to start wearing safety glasses when I get under my car.
