anything will fit if money is no object. I have never heard of anyone that has done that swap before tho. the most "extreme" swap i know of is an RL swap.

fyi: CL-S, TL engines are tranverse not longitudinal mounted.

RL? (is that the newe legend)
i getting a legend soon and i am scared that the engine might give out...

edited with more info ^^ read again.

It's going to be a totally custom swap. If you have the money to burn, sure! For that kind of swap, might as well look for an NSX C32;)

[Accord_tunerx]

hmm...which would...be mostly moderate pricing...
c32 or what else would be affordable as well...

Basiclly the only good swap you can get is the Type II or a JDM Type II “Alpha Touring” edition swap.


USDM Type I – 200 HP @ 5,500rpm | 210 lb/ft TQ@ 5,000rpm
91-95 Sedans (L/LS/SE trims only)
91-92 Coupes
USDM Type II – 230 HP @ 6,200rpm | 206 lb/ft TQ @ 5,000rpm
(can be easily recognized by "TYPE II" badge on intake manifold)

94-95 Sedans (GS trim only)
93-95 Coupes
JDM (Japan Type I) – 215 HP @ 5,500rpm | 220lb/ft TQ @ 4,500rpm
(rated at these numbers because of Japan’s different emission systems.)
JDM (Japan Type II “Alpha Touring”) – 232 HP @ 6,300rpm | 213 lb/ft TQ @ 5,200rpm [See Thread]
(extremely RARE in US)

Accord-Tuner, Legends are great cars.

However, your questions can be answered just by looking at the Acura-Legend.com website, which outlines allot of your inquiries. Look first through FAQ's etc,

Engine Swaps, realistically speaking, you best bet is putting in a TYPE II Motor from the GS.

[Team_Mclaren]

If you think that the engine is going to go soon, hunt for a usdm Type II. Like Neil mentioned, go on Acura-legend.com and read up. Or you can look for a jdm replacement. That's what I'm doing in a month time;) .
