like I said a possible re-post ( never even checked) however extremely useful for the ka purist that can do 1500 rather than the 3-4G’$ for a kit

best one is the one called the budget ka-t aka using all STOCK sr parts except the manifold

sr injectors , sr t25, sr lines, sr stock dp,sr stock elbow, sr smic and piping  
all u need extra is a tuning device or fmu and the ka24de t2 bottom mount manifold. BAM ur done…with 200whp… for under a grand. reliability is in the tune though and where it gets $$$ expensive.

i found DE is a much stronger head. and the fact that its Double over cam, higher rpms. i found the sohc actually lost power after 4500 rpm. Im building a KA-t with all forged internals and the KA24DE has a impressively strong head. youll definitly make more power with the KA24DE then the KA24E no question.
