In comparison to some other kinds of swaps, hondas usually aren't too bad. However, you do need some knowledge and appropriate tools. It would also help if you provided the year, model, and trim; people could give you more accurate and lengthy advice

Its pretty easy as long as you have the right tools and a little knowledge of how to work on things and helms book hondas are pretty much straight forward if your doing a swap thats been done but like puting in a k24 in a 86 accord then you need to know your **** about alot of things.

You'll need custom mounts to do that swap, since no one makes them anymore.
