2.4 rod question

Post by StreetEviL » Thu Apr 19, 2007 4:14 pm

I was wondering if the DOHC 2.4 rods and pistons are interchangable with the DOHC 2.0 rods and pistons? Like the same length and stuff!

edit: nevermind, didnt realize that the 2.4 got all of its extra displacement from the stroke.

edit2: according to allpar, the 2.4 rod is about a half an inch longer than the 2.0 rod. didnt look anymore indepth than that.

2.4 rod:
Is longer (if it fit on the stock 2.0 crank would bottom out on the head)
Has a larger crank bearing
Has a 2mm larger wrist pin

2.4 piston:
IIRC slightly different compression height
2mm larger wrist pin
