Hi Tim, I've had similar hesitation issues with Loreli occasionally. It seems that some others have too. She will turn over and will start after a long drive, but she strains at first. The prior owne

Hi All, I've begun pricing KA's and 240SX's. Do you have any idea of the "normal" lifespan of a KA engine? This info wasn't readily available on 311s.org (I looked this time). For example, convention

That's probably going to be tough to find without buying a whole new header. The flange for my U20 header was custom cut with a plasma cutter out of 1/2" steel, and then the tubes re-welded to that.
