    Vehicle Fitment

    This engine is a direct bolt-on replacement for the following models:

    • Kia Optima (LX 1.6T, EX): 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020

    Installation & Maintenance

    To protect your brand-new engine and ensure warranty coverage, follow these critical steps:

    1. Turbocharger Inspection: Ensure your existing turbocharger is free of debris and shaft play before bolting it to the new block.

    2. Oil Specifications: Use only high-quality full synthetic API SP or ILSAC GF-6 certified oil (0W-20 or 5W-30) to prevent Low-Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI).

      -->

    3. Break-In Period: Follow a standard 1,000-mile break-in procedure. Avoid constant speeds and heavy towing for the first 500 miles.

    What is included

    You receive exactly what is pictured. Engines are supplied as a long block assembly with the components visible in the photos. Accessories such as the alternator, starter, intake manifold or sensors are included only where you can see them on the unit, so check the photographs before ordering and ask us if anything is unclear.

    Before you order

    • Confirm the engine code against your own vehicle, not just the model year.
    • Japanese market units can differ from the US version in intake, loom and sensors.
    • Replace the timing components, water pump and seals while the unit is out. It is cheap insurance on an engine this age.
    • Keep your original accessories until the swap is finished and running.
