I thought about putting a chevy 350 in it and almost did. I decided not to do it because it would entail a whole lot more modifications to the front end than I wanted to do. Besides, this car is gonna be a daily driver and I wanted to save some gas.

Yeah, I had to fab the motor mounts, but it wasn't all that hard. I never drove the car with the mg engine, all I ever heard about it were horror stories, so I decided the mg engine would make a better boat anchor.

Then about a year ago my wife rolled my nissan pickup (I told her next time just hit the damned dog) and I suddenly had a KA24E engine that needed a new home. (by the way, the wife was fine, not even a scratch on her. Scared the crap outa her though).

I've heard a lot of different engine designations since I've been here like s13, s14, ca14,k20a, ka24de etc. Will any of the intake manifolds off one of these engines fit on a ka24e? I would really like to get the throttle body under the hood (it sticks out of the hood about an inch and a half, without any kind of air cleaner on it).

I can't wait to drive this thing.
