Default Accord v6 possible swap?

Im getting a 98-01 accord soon, im planning to get the 4cyl manual coupe..

But i always come back thinking about the v6 automatic model.. I dont really like the auto, especially because the honda one is pretty crappy as i hears everywhere.. But i was wondering.. Is there a swap possible, i mean, has it been done, to put in a v6 engine from the acura 3.2-type S with manual transmission!?

I dont plan on racing or anything this kind, just fun drives, not too many mods neither..and not a gas sucker, no way.. !

I just want to know, is this swap possible, has it been done?

thanks!!

If you are worried about money than the type-s swap is not for you cause buying that motor and tranny can be around 5-6k dollars easy.

Will v6 even fit in 4cvl engine bay without extensive chop/fab? I thought 6 gen was just like 5 gen that way.

If so, then you might as well buy the new 6sp. v6 accord, cuz it will cost you much more to get a 3.2 w/tranny and then do all the fab work/wiring to get it to work.

Just turbo your f23. It will eat stock v6 auto accords all day long.
