It's out of an 03 TL Type S. Has a 6 speed LSD tranny. Power steering works, hopefully will have ac in a few weeks. The motor weighs about 100 pounds more than the b and k series motors. I make that difference up in HP and TRQ. All mounts and accessories are all custom made. Stock hood fits perfect, no holes, total sleeper.

Even being 100 pounds heavier than a K, I still see that poor car never keeping traction lol. Although its funny that from the k20 site that a J series swap is cheaper than a K swap.(Least what I read up sorry if thats incorrect information)

Theres more weight over the wheels so I dont see traction being a huge problem as long as you dont drop the clutch
very nice though, I've always wanted to put my oddessy motor in my civic, lmao
nice work keep it up! You got to put a video up when its finished of a really sweet sleeper!
