It's 100% custom

Anything is possible

No one has done it so no one can give you a price

I hate these questions

ZOMG Brilliant idea.

Better idea!

Search for yourself, and see that there is a K swap kit for the CD chassis and a CB chassis kit has been "in the works"

Or post a stupid question.

no dude i was not being an ***, i just said hasport! DONT GET WEAK ON ME NOW!
dude what ever you want to do is prolly posible, he said 100% custom he`s right, you will need ALOT of **** and it will prolly be 10-G`s for the swap. Are you sure you want to put 10-G`s in you 90`s model that will prolly sell for 1,OOO (around there) It is good to be the first one to do something but, you will also be the one with the head-aches and the brain teasers.
IN THE END: You could have a BAD-*** ACCORD or you could have a hacked up POS that you spent 15-G`s on that is nothing but TRASH.
Let me know what you decide to do!

O Rly?

The one that explained it to you.

If I go to google and search "k20 + accord" guess what pops up chief? And I'm glad you stopped posting.

*edit*

And the reason I say "i hate this question" is because it's like [freak]ing asking "can I eat a poptart tonight?" There's a civic with a [freak]ing corvette engine, there's so many off the wall [freak]ing swaps and you are just going

"dooooooess the k go in da accord? i didnt look or nutin but does it?"

Seriously, do some damn searching, do some damn research, and help yourself to the VAST [freak]ing amounts of knowledge before posting a shot in the dark question.

"5. RESPECT Respect all users, including new ones just because you've been around doesn't give you the right to be an ***. Unless you have something constructive to add keep it to yourself....."

This is straight from the Accord forum rules.

Some much for that, right muffinman??

I wasn't an *** until he decided to be a douche nozzle.

I just said I hate these questions, but if you notice I answered him.

Had he searched there would not have been a need to post the question at all.

Exactly, it's 100% custom chief. Never said it couldn't be done. Hasport hasn't mass produced the motor mounts for the CB chassis yet.

AC Lines have to be fabbed, axles, etc
