Maybe a stupid question but is your motor in backwards?^^^. I know you know what you're doing so no pun intended i just noticed it and figured i would ask
Re: K24 Frank begins.
you have to modify to the exhaust to match up to the downpipe.. k20 header and downpipe stop around where the shifter cables go into the car

Re: K24 Frank begins.
Ok so does the K24 have even bigger hood clearance issues than the K20 or does the K24 mount kit address this and I thought that stock K20 headers mated straight up to an EM Civic exhaust? I'm piecing together my swap right now I have the option of K24 or K20 and I'm working out the details. Thanks guys, keep up the great work your success is keeping me motivated while I work on students wages to afford this stuff.
P.S.
What's the deal with the TSX tranny not fitting? You HAVE to use a K20 tranny?

HOWEVER....
This is all assuming you will be using the type-s intake manifold. If you plan to use the rbc then there are more clearance issues to worry about
