This is going to be so sick!! I had an s14 with an sr and a 2000 civic coupe with a built K20 swap. So i cant wait to see this car running and at the track!
U guys forgot there are 2 crank vent/breathers. Second one is on the water pump housing and has a 1 way valve. This is where most vapor comes from. Even have a look inside if u end up re sealing the water pump housing on, u can see how much oil vapor build up there.
Guys, I seriously cannot wait to see how this thing turns out with the K20. I think once you add some boost it's going to be alot of fun. Put a good turbo kit on it and put it in the hands of Sasha and it's not only going to be crazy powerful, but it's also going to be so much more reliable than the old SR20. Don't get me wrong, I am NOT knocking on Nissan, or the SR20DET, but from everything that I've seen from multiple sources, the SR20 is a notoriously unreliable powerplant once it is modified beyond 300 whp in stock form. I made 408 whp on a bone stock internal B18B1 (94-01 Acura Integra LS/RS/GS non-VTEC) with ARP rod and head studs, BC stage 2 turbo cams, BC dual valve springs with titanium retainers, and a Skunk 2 intake manifold and 70mm throttle body, 6063 eBay turbo that lasted for 26,000 miles and still has hardly any shaftplay, on 15 psi of boost in my 97 Civic coupe. I've built 4g63t Mitsubishi engines, I've built multiple Nissan engines (including SRs and RBs), I've built multiple Honda engines, I've built small block Chevy engines, I've built Ford small blocks, and Ive built big block Chrysler engines, but I have yet to find an engine that is as easy to build and as easy to make power with as a Honda 4 cylinder. The old V8s are alot of fun, but the 4 cylinder and turbocharging is the technology of the future as well as the past. My car is fully built now and just made a very conservative 508 whp on 14 psi so far.
While not a problem on a turbo engine inlet manifolds that are too cold can cause issues with rough running and poor idle. This is why there are often water jackets on intakes and hot air hoses from the exhaust manifolds to the air box.
You guys should make this into a drag car. Would be fun to see you guys building a drag car and it would be something new for the channel too. Probably attract new viewers as well.
so i wanted to ask, why did you use a "heater hose" thats designed for water when there is going to be oil vapor and oil going into it. wouldnt it degrade the pipe rapidly?
You should get a big white board or something and have all the project to do lists written on it that can be marked off at the end of an episode as a sort of a recap of what was done as well as make it easier to visualize project progress for the audience especially while more than one project is going on at once.
Try a plastic 90' elbow for the breather if room or better weld an aluminium 90' elbow on the rocker, will save that nasty bend in the hose, scuttle bashing and any rubbing.
The 240 is coming along. Great job guys. If the valve cover is aluminum. Wouldn't it be best to weld a bung on then run a 90 fitting off? Erything else is top notch.
Hey guys , I'm concern? Didn't you guys just junked the BMW wagon in the back on the last video, so that means this is a old video you've been holding on to to release . :/
As much as you guys use AN fitting I’m kinda shock you guys don’t keep them in stock. While I understand the cost can add up fast you guys go through them just as fast. If you did this you can always put some of them the unused ones up for sale here and there (or hook up some of your fans cough, cough, wink, wink). Anyway keep up the great job.
Another awesome videos guys! Seems backwards to me to mock everything up then remove it to paint though. Any reasoning behind that other than trying to create video content ?
Brandon Vaillancourt how would they know where to drill, cut and hammer on the firewall before mocking it up? They have to get to 95% complete in order to go back and make cosmetic things right all at once at the end. What if they painted the bay but need to relocate the catch can or something?
80% of the immune system is located in the gut, since I took two courses of probiotics and removed all the acid forming food from my diet (sugar, grains, processed carbs, wheat and gluten) I haven't been sick in over ten years. Do you guys use or have you heard of using fully synthetic two stroke oil/fuel at a ratio of around 200/1 to help lubricate the upper cylinder and cushion and help seal the valves? I've used upper cylinder lubricant on my Nissan 2l petrol since I got it 15 years ago, she's on 432,000ks and runs better than when I got her even though I need to rebuild the carb and replace the 8 spark plugs again, I've only done it once in 15years..
Pretty sure you guys put the catch can in the wrong spot. It should go between the PCV and the plenum, not the valve cover and the intake tube. That would actually be the fresh air inlet. Hopefully you see this!
Jake u are halfway right they are both part of the pcv system and you should have 2 catch cans one between the pcv valve and the intake, the other between the valve cover and the intake. One is for when the system has positive pressure and the other when it has negative pressure.
I love the way you explained everything here 8:15, very clear, polite, and informative.
Gotta throw it out there again and will again that it is SOOOO refreshing to see an out of the box swap.
This is going to be so sick!! I had an s14 with an sr and a 2000 civic coupe with a built K20 swap. So i cant wait to see this car running and at the track!
You can cut and re-weld a 90degree fitting on the valve cover so it looks better
An elbow joint might work with the breather hose instead of recessing the firewall

The "drain on/off switch" is called a petcock, hence the name of the kit ;-)

Ahhh no 240 intro clip I was looking forward to that
nice work guys, i would reroute the can routing to the valve cover tho

Hot dog in a hallway...errr moment.
🤔😂😂😂 I love this guys humor

Darn I really liked the 240’s intro haha
Can’t wait to see this running 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🙃
Beautiful catch can! Just picked one up for my Evo X dialy driver \m/
Try a plastic 90' elbow for the breather if room or better weld an aluminium 90' elbow on the rocker, will save that nasty bend in the hose, scuttle bashing and any rubbing.
I love watching these videos and channels but why you guys always so sarcastic all the time? Lol. Either way you have my support.
The machined texture on the catch can is a knurl
TABRAO
Which is a very fun word to say!
Is the vibrant heater hose oil resistant?
My first thought as well, silicone hoses should not be used for oil or fuel.
are you planning to do something with petes brothers civic? really loved this project!
Need to weld a 90° on the back of the valve cover instead of beating the fire wall up, plus it will look cleaner
I been waiting for another upload nice =)
Check your timing chain. These k series have a tendency to stretch them if they haven’t been taken care of!
The seal on that stant oil cap will start leaking after it tears. Get some aluminum cap, you can make your own speed academy one.
The 240 is coming along. Great job guys. If the valve cover is aluminum. Wouldn't it be best to weld a bung on then run a 90 fitting off? Erything else is top notch.
centex sc Yes it would be ideal and much cleaner looking
Cant wait to see this done
Nice project 👍👍
Smashed it ten times!!
Hey! DP sound like I have for the past week. 😷
don't you still need gaskets either side of the thermal gasket?
Regarding 'phenolic' - As a 10 year pharmacy veteran, if a word looks complex, just say it with confidence and no one will know any better.

Great video gentlemen.
Nice Build!

it puts the lube on the injectors or it gets the hose again....
After everything is done will it be boosted??

I see the BMW wagon still sitting there...
So which is the best k engine to use in a swap , I have a k24A laying around but idk if it's good for power
Just weld a 90 degree fitting or put AN fittings on the valve cover. Don’t bang the firewall.. do it right

idk with silicone and fuel... but im still gonna watch this.
What are you talking about, the engine's in the right direction now
The intro is missing! It was so cool :(
Do you guys have a forum page ?
Marios Tabajen they have a website where they post articles that cover different content than the videos, good stuff actually speed.academy
K420SX Versus Connie Celica very soon ? ;;)))
You guys should wear goggles and gloves when using that bandsaw ;)
But mostly lower the guard. Right now it’s setup to cut a leg of lamb not sheet metal & thin plastic.
Do it for the little kids.
no gloves. can get caught in the blade.
E Channel gloves will get caught on the blade and drag the hand with it
Goggles yes, glove no !
you should try fitting an s2000 aem v2 intake, lol
Where is the intro???!! 😭😭😭😭
Patrick Frazier what's the k swap intro music?
K swap music with their intro is perfect. Not the same without
Cory kempland do you know what song it is I always wondered
I LOVE IT.
Yes
🔥🔥

The k motors have a catch can I believe built into the pcv valve side so you need the catch can for the other half
haha anyone notice the bmw in the background
Silicone products make your Map sensors, and O2 sensors do stupid stuff dude...
You're making a mess of the engine bay, squirt away from all that awesome engine bay jewelry!
You guys fucking SUCK at progress! Why did you even make this video before having ALL the parts. Should have made a "mock" video.
*FIRST BITCHES!*
optimistichorizon lol nice
Quick, add a comma in there! Otherwise, it means something I'm sure you're not saying. :)
optimistichorizon nope,..
David Shea Dammit, comma, how I Hate you for being right.
MAN ya gotta stop smoking so much weed... you guy always forget piece to add on
Firs-fuhhh
