Great numbers, Drew

You don't want to run a RSX Type-S VTC mechanism in the K24.
The stock RSX-S VTC gear allows for 50 degrees of cam advance, which is too much to run on the K24 block due to piston-valve clearance issues. Technically, the K-Pro should be able to limit advance to 45 degrees, but since it is only an electronic control, it's not guaranteed to catch every stroke.
The safest method is to machine the TSX VTC gear - that way it's actually mechanically limited to a certain amount of advance.
