I was wondering if any of you out there could tell me the differences between the 6 and 7 bolt 2.4L 4G64s? Are the differences the same as the 4G63 6 and 7 bolts? Would it even be worth it to build up a 7 bolt 4G64? Thanks!

No, ask V8killer on here.

The difference is not the same. Most people build the 2.4's as a race motor to be beaten on. Most people drive around with a 2.0 7 bolt. A stock 2.0 would probly last longer. Chris' didn't last 2 weeks if I remember correctly. QPR will not even build another 7 bolt.

7 bolt 4G64s can be a successful engine configuration, look at ecoli's '99 GSX. 664whp on a set of Eagles & Wisecos with the 7 bolt 4G64 isn't exactly too shabby. :bounce:

With like 3 1/4 mile passes and I have no clue how many street miles (probably not many) For all we know it's walking too...

twin plate clutch vs. act 2900
dyno time and a few pases vs. few thousand miles and a few track passes
I wish shane the best of luck, but imo the 7 bolt 4g64 is a bad decision. The machine work required to make it 'safe' is very expensive.

With the twin plate is the crank seeing less clamping force than the stock set up?

lots of clamp, less pressure on the crank though

I didn't waste my money on ARP mains or CRCO dowel kits that probably only make the problem worse. I spent $130 in machine shop labor. The motor will probably blow up before it gets a chance to crankwalk. I am not the only one out there making high HP on a 7-bolt 2.4, I am not even the only one in the 10s.
