2.4 compatabillty
Wednesday, February 04, 2009 5:53 PM
So I have a 2000 z24 with a bad 2.4. I found a 2.4 from a 97 grand am and was curious as to if it will swap into my vehicle without problems. I really need to get it going soon and am hoping to get lucky and find that I can go ahead and buy it. Help me people. Please! haha Thanks Adam

ok well does anyone know what the difference is in the quad 4 2.3l head and the newer 2.4l heads. Would a 2.4 head work on the 2.3? Whats different, valve size, combustion chambers? I found a really good deal on a 95 and it needs a head. Thought maybe I would use my good 2.4 on it if it works right. Thanks Everyone

The head from the 2.3 could be shaved to get it flat again but I just thought I could try to save money by using my 2.4 head. What would really be different. Are there really that many sensors on the head? Maybe a CPS and an Oil pressure sending unit? I run a manual mechanical oil pressure gauge so I have no wires there. Is there even a CPS on the 2.4? I didn't see anything other than the sending unit wires, but maybe I missed it. Thanks Adam

I don't think the 2.4 head will work. The 2.3 head has bigger valves and different ports and combustion chambers anyway. Take a look at this article...
