You will have a 2.4 liter motor instead of a 2.39 liter motor and we all know there is no replacement for displacement.

Really though, if you damaged the cylinder walls it gives you room to have them re-machined and generate a new wear surface. Think of it this way, you can fook up your pistons a total of four times before the block is trash. There are 89, 89.5, 90, and 90.5mm pistons available....although I am not sure a 60 (1.5mm) overbore is recommended.

just got a ka24de from a pick n pull for 153. dollars.i put a socket on tha crank and tried to spin it and it was a little too hard for me to spin.does that nessecerily mean it aint gonna turn over?or could it be that they drained tha oil b 4 they set tha car on site?if so, i aint gonna rip it apart. ill take my chances. tha motor looks good n clean, wit no leaks or blown seals so thats why i got it.hit me up. . .

Stop posting your **** in everyone's threads, it doesn't even address what the op is asking. If you need help with you **** start your own thread.
