Re: difference between Honda 2.4L DOHC I-4 vs K24Z7 engine
erm.. which 2.4L DOHC I-4?
the k24 is a 2.4L DOHC inline 4 engine..
edit: the k24-series engines are the only inline 4 cylinder 2.4L engines Honda made. The K24Z7 just so happens to be one of them.
how honda engines nomenclature typically works:
[Letter][two numbers][1 or 2 letters/numbers]
e.g.
K24Z7
K series engine
24: 2.4L engine
Z7: model in that series engine.
The K24's have the K24A, -A2, -A3, -A4, -A8, -W2, -W3, -Z7 models.
edit 2: initially commented, then remembered your thread about knowing nothing, hence the edit. Then realized you probably heard one or the other, figured there was a difference. Figured I'd spell it out for you. Feel free to ask up more about the variances in Honda engines and we'll answer best we can.

Yeah, its like saying "All purples are colors, but not all colors are purple"
K24Z7 is just specifically what engine model is under that hood.
