I didn’t see the whole thing yet, but posting here because some might find it interesting. My mechanic friend complained that most car Youtube channels are a bit too simple for him, he wants to see and learn more technical details - so this is a solution to that, if you wish to do the same.
This is way over my head,
so if anyone wants to discuss technicalities, I can only apologize because my only contribution can be
VTEC kicked in yo!

The most important thing is that it has a timing chain instead of a stupid belt like the earlier engines used

I hate timing belts.

Can he please come by my shop and install one in my X1/9 to make sure I was able to fully comprehend the wonderful video? I’m a “visual, hands-on” learner...
Thank you.

The K24 is a fantastic engine. The quickest drag car to run one that im aware of is also the quickest 4 cylinder Honda powered dragster. The Lucima r Racing Honda went 6.6 at over 200mph with a K24 a few years ago. Really fantastic work for a non-billet aluminum 4 cylinder.

Bought a 2006 RSX-S new that had this series —was never the fastest thing on the road, but produced a great note with the Type-S’s exhaust setup and was just a really great car . A lot of fun to run through the gears and I surprised more than a few more powerful cars in curved on ramps and the like. Great engine.

Drag racing really isn’t my jam, but I do have huge respect for the engineering behind it. Working so hard and
p
ushing so much for a few milliseconds... Reminds me of F1-level technology.

The K20A and RSX is the primary killer of the Toyota Celica and 2ZZ-GE. I which Toyota had upped the ante with an emission compliant 2.2L 2ZZ-GE in 2004, it needed that little bit more power in the low-mid.
No one gave a toss about the 2AZ in the tC,
however
they were surprisingly compliant
engines for throwing on
a snail

That’s perfect. I’ll even roll out the good toolbox...

I find it funny that he’s so excited by the roller rockers, when.... basically every single modern DOHC engine, no matter how pedestrian, uses roller rockers or roller finger followers. Honda’s actually kinda back in the dark ages because their valvetrain design doesn’t have hydraulic lash adjusters, so you end up with those manual adjustment screws to adjust the lash on every single valve.
