Heres my question, and I know there are an immense amount of honda techs on here so:

Can a J30a motor successfully be swapped into a 1997 honda accord?

Any suggestions?
Tips?
Pros/Cons?

Thanks.

 

in a nutshell, no

 

would you mind explaining?

 

94-97 4cyl's cant even fit the c27 (94-97 accord V6 engine), because the engine bay/firewall is different layout....j30 is very large, would need cusom everything, and drives the driver side wheel, not passenger like the F22....so in a nutshell, no, it wont fit w/o TONS of modifcation

 

ok...Thanks, much appreciation.

 

what about a v6 platform. persay a legend? laterally positioned v6 bay should be big enough to accomodate a j30a. right? My boss drives a legend. always pondered this question.thanks
