ACCORD ENGINE SWAP

My friend has a 2001 accord and he wants to swap he just does not know what engine to do it with he cant do a h22 b/c there were no h22's produced in 2001 my idea was to do a k24 from the new accord and crv, i guess my question is would that be the best swap for him or any other suggestions

uh...just because the engine isn't the same yr as your car doesn't mean you cant do the engine swap and I doubt you going to find the new accord engine anytime soon....

Well if he had that kind of money to do a swap and wants a faster car, maybe he should think about trading it in? I mean if you ever find a k24, I'm sure it will be an expensive *** swap. If he wants to be fast, maybe he should look into turbo or maybe nitrous? Maybe even a new car?

Swap the CL Type S engine. 260HP with a 6-speed. Does 13s. Might be an SOHC but that's one hell of an SOHC.

EDIT: If he's willing to do an engine swap, why doesn't he just simply buy a new manual transmission? The Accord engine have something a lot of other Honda engines lack, and that is TORQUE. I raced a V6 Accord on the freeway... to say the least, I got left by 2 eighteen wheeler lengths. (Too many cars lengths to estimate.) Keep the engine IMO.

If it's a V6, Comptech makes a supercharger outfit for it. Why bother swapping it, just put it on a blower.

I agree with Boilermaker. Comptech makes some sweet products I hear. I think there was a supercharged V6 accord in Sport compact car that made around 300 hp. Could've been a different mag. I think the car was purple. Plus it'll be easier and less expensive than a complicated swap. Its the path I would choose in that situation.
