F24 Vortech Blower Build
This is my favorite thing to do. Buy some parts, take shit apart, modify it, put it all back together and slap it on the dyno to see what it does. It's not about hitting a certain goal or being the best; it's about having fun trying stuff and learning. Many of us already know the standard methods for modding these cars, but we don't know what ELSE works or how well it does / doesn't work. I'm gonna enjoy this thread! 

Ok it has been a two weeks or so and we made some progress, yesterday we finished the block with the Steel sleeve install. It was very Labor intensive and my boss was working on my Block only on Saturday's since Customers stuff has priority. Getting the Sleeve in, everything had to be right on, without makin any mistakes. The Sleeves are 2mm Sleeves with a 0.0015" Press fit






ALL FOUR SLEEVES ARE INSTALLED

Here Are Some parts I will be Using...
BTW, after comparing stock Rod and Piston, The H-Beam K1 Rod and Wiseco Piston is 113g lighter than stock per set, so I'm loosing almost a pound in rotating mass but probably will gain some with the K24 Crank

Well, I apreciate your input but I'm not going turbo. I will also have 400cc more displacement which should increase mid range by an avr. of 50ft.lb. also if I'm going to be unhappy than I can always unbolt the S/C and convert to turbo if I decide later, for now the S/C is the most simplistic and affordable choice

they don't seem to be @ 5.63" like stated on K1 website for ref#HH5630AEGB4 Honda Honda S2000/K24 Conversion Rod but the correct 145.5mm/5.73 " lenght to use those rods with F20c (30mm compression height) pistons, does the small end is the correct 23mm pin and not 22 like the k1 website states ?
Thanks, that would free up the headache of custom rods.
These are called F20/K24 Conversion Rods and are designed with the Wiseco Pistons. You will still have to modify the K24 Crank and Ballance everything. As soon as you use aftermarket Rods and Pistons you change the BOB weight and the whole assembly will need to be ballanced again. I'm sure some people skip that step and probably get away with it but I would not recomend it.
Ok, made some progress. The block is completely machined and clearanced for the stroker assembly. The Block is Decked to Zero Deck which is perfect since we will be using a COMETIC .045" or 1.14mm thick HG. In the following pics, It shows where we had to notch the Pistons for the oilers, wanna make sure everything stays lubricated and cool. We are also done with the Pre-assembly and now, everything can be taken apart so we can send off the Crankshaft to be balanced. Two days Ago, I ordered a new ATI Balancer, XXR 521 Wheels and tires. Also have some 1000cc Deatschwerks Injectors and 400GPH pump coming, so if everything goes well, I should be at the dyno in 4 Weeks. I tell you, all the machining and pre-fit and pre-assembly takes the most amount of time than any other aspect of this build.
