3.2 TL engine swap
I was just wondering if anyone had ever heard or knew anyone who has dropped an Acura 3.2 TL engine into a 94-97 EX 2 door or any accord. I think that it would be super fast and worth the price to do the swap. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas or knew anybody who had one done.

What does that have to do with anything, or are you just curious?

Yea, I only wish it was stick. Its an auto of course, but its still very nice. When I really feel like driving a stick I can always drive my dad's toyota pickup. However, my next car will be stick for sure.

I guarantee you if it's not a V6, it wont be going in without a LOT of money and fabrication.

Re: 3.2 TL engine swap (94tsudoaccord)
Honestly that 3.2L engine is too heavy, put a h22 + turbo in your car and say bye bye to the 3.2L v6 NTM is WAY cheaper .

Re: 3.2 TL engine swap (VR)
i could see a 6th gen. doing this more then a 5th gen....
i got crazy thoughts about building up the V6 on the 6 th gen's as a side project and put it in my car later down the road..haha who knows how much power a v6 might really have?

IT's not the engine you have to worry about on a 6th gen, it's the damn automatic transmission that V6's came with that are the weak link in the chain...
