98 accord engine swap
I just got my hands on a 4 bangin' 98 accord, whats the biggest swap I can do? I was thinking about the sister 6 cylinder, or doing the 3.2 Dohc swap from the Acura CL

the 3.2 cl swap, i heard took a little work especially with the transmission part and something with the ecu and computer, but thats prolly normal with all engine swaps. i have a V6 accord and i want to do the 3.2 swap but i think im just ganna go with the cl type s cams.

yeah if you want the 3.2 cl-s motor you are soooooooooooo much better starting off with a v6 car. the 4cyl and the v6 spin opposite directions so they sit in the engine bay 180 degrees from each other. the wire harness is completely backwards. the v6 car would make for a much easier swap.

gets my vote and is cheaper than v-6 swap

1st off it is not a dohc v6 is the cl-s it is sohc and to swap that in the 4cyl accord you will have to do way more work than it is worth. you should either turbo your f23 or swap in an h22.

Re: 98 accord engine swap (01accordv6)
Im doing a 3.2 TL-s swap, I dunno if its called different here (canada), But apperently all the motor mounts from the V6 accord are the same as the TL-s,
And then you can throw on a comptech supercharger, thats like...380hp.
isnt it? Maybe theres more I need to know, but all the shops around here are asking about 3-4000 bucks (cdn $) for the install. And all im asking them to do is the wire harness...
