I dont know a whole lot about the K-series engines, but I know they're backwards, and not something I'm interested in owning... any information I give on them is purely opinion and speculative, based on input from owners that I know/talk to.

Unless I got it from a Honda manual or something, in which case I'd have stated that.

The thing about the K20A2 having a crappy header and being choked came from one of the techs at Bobby Rahal Honda in Carlisle, Pa.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
