I think the motor mounts and transmission mounts are really, really different. You'd be better off just getting a 4 cylinder Accord.

Or can I swap it to a h22a v6???
The H22 is an inline 4, and yes you can put it in your 97, but it won't be easy. (It'll be easier than putting a V6 in there I'm sure...)

4 door, I'm pretty sure it's not too bad as long as he gets a 97-99 H22a4.

Yeah, not hard, but not as easy as swapping a motor into a '94-'95 Accord.

You read the question wrong.
He has a 4 cylinder Accord. He first asked if he can swap a V6 in there. We said no. (well, anything can be done with enough money)

v6 front end is longer than a 4 cylinder so if you want to do that you would need to get the v6 front end and the motor...the h22a will give you better results..easier to do and cheaper than a v6 will run you plus unless you are willing to put out about 5g's (my friend inquired on this) to get parts to do a manual swap for the v6 you really should get the h22a.

V6 does have torque and there are manuals that will work. V6 engines are stronger than you think

in this situation it would be totally rediculous to swap in the V6...it would cost way more than you could buy a 5th gen V6 for in the first place

yeah that is true but swaping a V6 (in the 6th gen) would not be that bad of an idea.
