Default Acura Legend, 2.5-2.7?

Hey, I'm just about to start working on a project Acura Legend 87 Sedan I got for free. It has a blown head gasket and the engine has about 190,000 on it. I figured rather than fixing the headgasket problem, I'd just swap in a new engine for a couple hundred bucks.

My question is:
I used to have a 1990 Legend Coupe, with the 2.7L V6, and the 87 sedan I'm about to pick up has the 2.5L V6 in it. If I buy the 2.7L, will it fit perfectly into the sedan?

most likely, if the body styles are similar! car manufactures are cheap, they dont like to re-invent the wheel every year.
