i don't think you understand what a shortblock and longblock are...they are not two different engines...

a longblock is a "complete" engine that just drops in and plug it up to your vehicle

a shortblock is just that a block, with all the internal parts and that's it...nothing else.

and i'm sure if you had to you can buy a ka24 from a junkyard or someone here on nic, but make sure you get a fwd ka not a rwd ka.

and more importantly why is this in the sports section?
