Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

From an old thread on anthoer forum I forgot about,

Guy takes three KA24 heads, cuts them up, and assembled them into a single DOHC head for a Nissan L28 inline 6.

I remember when he started talking about this project back in 2005 or so, and in 2007 he got it put together.

Ooooooolllllllllllllldddddddddd as fuck, still sweet tho

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

any pics of the finshed car itself?

crazy build though :thup:

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

was this cheaper than any of the inline 6 motors that are already made? the fabrication looks like shit, or maybe he just didn't clean anything?

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

It's an older thread from 2007 or so and I can't find any of the cleaned up pics. I figured you guys would get a kick out of it though since there are so many Z fans.

The car it was installed into was pretty ratted out.

The guy wanted to keep an L series inline 6 for some reason. If you want a DOHC head there are two options.

The ultra rare factory 2.0 DOHC which used a different block. Less than 500 of these Zs were made and only sold in Japan

Or the OS Giken head which is like $12,000

I lol'd at the head bolted together but then I thought about it.. I've seen fuck-ton worse things done on Hondas.

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

Holy Shit

Super wow.

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

There are so many engineering problems involved in this that I would love to know how he solved them. . . although its a safe bet he probably just threw it together. . .

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

try $30,000

and they only made 9

That's a lot of work for an L28. You could put a......

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

That is absolutely nuts. And hats off to dude for getting it to work...That is so impressive. Hate if you want, but only if you've pulled off something more insane.

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

What was the going rate of KAs and skyline motors in 07? Then factor in the fabrication time, even if it was on his time its still a lot, and you probably could have a proven TT modern motor that isn't hacked.

I guess he is just super jdm tyte.

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

But you'd ruin the SOUL of the car

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

Jesus Christmas that's not JDM MAD TYTE,...YO...that is just straight fuck people for saying whatever, I'm going to build this shit. I don't think it's about the money, or else he would just thrown an ls1 in an fc....

Re: Three KA24s = one DOHC Inline 6 head
 

The soul is ruined by not putting an original motor in it, if you wanna talk about souls lol and ITBs are probably one of the most ear raping orgasmic sounds out there, even if it doesn't make tons of power.

If this wasn't imports it would be on one of those there I fixed it sites :p

woah woah woah tongwoo, you're retarded.
