anyone running stock internal 2.4

brando · 10-23-2008

just wondering because i know they are pretty high compression for turbo application's

you cant run a 2.4 stock if it was a sohc and you try to put the dohc on it. the pistons dont have the cut outs for the dohc head in them

The pistons are probably not forged either, so you'd be asking for major trouble. Don't be ghey. Do it right.

No they are cast out of T6 aluminum. They do get forged rods though.

I don't think DSM pistons are forged. But they are designed for a forced induction car at least.

True.

2.4L's are not cheap, build it right, or stay with your stock 4g63T, people have dyno'ed their cars and got over 500 AWHP which I am sure many people with printouts can back up, 400AWHP for sure.

spend your money elsewhere, like engine management and a turbo

i was just wondering. i am building a 2.3 so it doesn't really matter i was just wondering if anyone had run one with stock interals before. i wanted to do one for a dd.

would it be possible to do just piston's or would i need to do rod's also?

**Goat Blower** · 10-24-2008

Aftermarket pistons have a different pin design that stockers, so by the time you machine the stock rods to fit, you could just pony up another hundo or two and do it right. You just can't be cheap and do a 2.3 or 2.4, it's too easy to ruin your block and crank and they aren't cheap these days. Save your money and do it right.

brando · 10-25-2008

yea im just gonna do the ol' 2.3

I've got the parts left over to build a hatchet crank 2.14L. Something to throw on the stand for a rainy day.
