Any pics of VQ30DE-K engine bay?
Hey, I am about to purchase a newer motor for my 4th gen, and I was looking for some pics to compare the two in stock form. I was also wondering if the extra "-K" would be engraved on the block, as well. Any links are welcome, as well. thanks.

I guess the difference would be in the intake manifold. You can check out my homepage for a picture of the engine bay.

As far as the mounting points, I'm sure the engine will fit with no problem. However, the VO30DE-K, might not clear the 4th Gen hood because the intake manifold is higher compared to the 4th Gen manifold.

The intake manifolds got variable intake.

When are you buying the engine, I could post up some pics in like around 6 hours (12 max). Anything particular you want in the pics??
