Re: Crank Girdle in truck KA possible?

i am building a 500hp ka24e and my engine machinist has some experience dealing with rebello.

rebello actually prefers to use the truck block, the 240sx girdle causes oiling issues.

You shouldn't have an issue with turbo clearance. Ask NIS 720 suggestions he has a really clean set up like you. I'm pretty sure if you use a jgsmanifolds you will have plenty of clearance.

If I were you with your big tires set up I would just use the stock gears that are in the izuzu rear ends they come with either 4.10 or 4.30 we are axel ratios.
