Your one of the only guys that places the head on block without studs installed 1st. The proper way to do it so you dont run risk of studs rubbing on head and putting small shavings between head gasket and head.
Great presentation. At 10:07 I would suggest a 6 point socket, not 12 point. Even less chance of rounding off the nut or bolt head because you have more of the socket surface in contact with that nut or bolt. Here's a quote from Tekton : "For 6-point fasteners, a 6-point tool is your best choice. Matching up the points between the tool and fastener means that you will maximize the surface area of steel in contact, making the tool less likely to slip or fail. This is important when you’re applying a lot of force, especially if the fastener is damaged or rusted."
Torque wrench’s can false read if you “jerk” them, it’s easy to do on the low torque numbers, but technically to get the most accurate measure, you would want to use as much swing as possible per pull, to make it as consistent a turn as possible. Also lube on the block studs will do that too.

A thought on turning the head studs beyond finger tight: The stock head bolts never bottom out in the block because the bolts are shorter than the total stack height of the head, gasket, and threaded block holes. Because of dissimilar metals (Aluminum block and steel studs) having different rates of expansion, there may be a condition where the studs place pressure on the block at the bottom of the holes that the designers never accounted for.
you are correct on expansion, i have seen studs pull out under extreme boost, the expansion of the studs screwed tight into the block was enough with the boost to pull the threads. we found bottom out and back off 1/4-1/3 turn out was optimal with some threadlock on studs
You don't need arp lube on the block side of the studs, they don't turn and affect the torque so all it needs is a little oil so they don't seize and go in nicely. Won't hurt anything to use the arp lube, but you only get a little bit in the package so you can save some by just using oil on the bottom. Build looks nice, good job man.
I was just talking to someone else who commented about that. I read the instructions closely and yes I shouldnt have put lube on the block side. Whats done is done. If it ever comes apart again. Ill install them dry on the block. Thanks for the comment 👍

Definitely don't add any extra tq to the head studs. Just finger tight otherwise you're changing the stressors on the block that can warp it and affect head clamping loads.

I came up with a solution for this. I used ARP head studs for the H22A4 (correct length) but the diameter of the stud is 12mm, so you have to m12x1.25 tap down the hole to give it that extra 1mm since the factory head blots are 11mm.

No, even though the bore of the 2.0 is a 86mm the dome on the head is large enough to accommodate the k24. 1mm isnt much. Even it bored over .5 its still ok

What is the compression ratio before and after the head swap? Thanks
Stock compression on this k24 is 9.7:1
After all the work I did compression should be closer to 12.5:1
The reason they don't want you to torque down these head studs.
is because wen metal gets hot It expands
I understand. If i have a failure from me slightly tightening them I'll let the world of TH-cam know.

Why did you have to use the CRV head gasket instead of the stock on?
I think the Crv head gasket has a slightly larger bore diameter but I can't remember. My bores are 87.5mm if I remember correctly so if the oem head gasket is lager than that then you can use the oem

Is the bore the same? Or did you have to machine the head?
The head was milled down to just ensure its flat. The bored or bored over .5
@@themechanic6117 the k20a is 86mm bore . The k24 is 87mm bore. I guess my question was wouldn't the combustion chambers squish diameter on the 2.0 head have to be machined 1mm larger to match? Plus .5 overbore?
No, even though the bore of the 2.0 is a 86mm the dome on the head is large enough to accommodate the k24. 1mm isnt much. Even it bored over .5 its still ok
@@themechanic6117 thanx man.
Appreciate the info
