Would a valve cover from a DOHC s13 such as a 94 fit on a 95 s14 ka24?

 

yes.

its the same ka24de engine.

 

possible to get a ka valve cover and put it on your swapped engine, example sr20 or rb25? that way you can maybe you can tell stupid cops that you dont have anything swapped?? sorry if dumb question but i don't know, thought it be a clever idea..

 

uh, no.

 

X2. Those engines are totally different

 

yea.....i mean have u seen the size difference between a rb and ka...even if u havent, ones a I4 others a I6

plus why do u need a stock s13 that runs well if ure gonna swap it?

 

SR20 > 2.0 Liter
KA24 > 2.4 Liter

its like putty a CD in a Floppy Drive. no matter how you turn it, it wont fit. so... thats the deal.

what you can do is paint the cover to the greysh look like KA's. but what cop would know how the stock motor of a 240 looks like in the first place???

 

why not jus get a black top sr20 if ur gonna swap the motor.that way its not even noticable to a cop plus there busy in their doughnut-coffee world.plus is more upgraded then a red top

 

or just not put one on at all. that way when you get pulled over the cop thinks your crazy and leaves you alone.

 

lol... thats a good one. haha. i gotta use this one.

 

Actually the s13 ka24de valve cover does not fit on the s14 ka24de engine. I found out the hard way. I recently ordered a powdercoated valve cover off ebay from a 94 240sx. The valve cover has three holes on the top for screws and no center back hole, while the s14 valve covers only have two on the top, and one in the center back. It will not work on the other engine.

 

People need to understand that the S13 and S14 engines are NOT the same engines

1. The cams are diffrent.
2. There are no secondary butterfly's in the intake manifold of a S14 (this is why the cams are diffrent since they do not need to be as agressive to perform just as well as the S13 but a S14 with S13 cams is better )
3. There is no coil pack(yes I know this is easily changed)

There are many other small diffrences but dont think a S13 and S14 engine are the same ALMOST all parts are interchangable but some are not.
