K24a4 swap into em2

Ok I know there is probably a thread somewhere about this but I am unable to pull. My question is since I am doing a k24a4 swap pretty soon, will I be able to bar this engine within california? Because this motor is from an accord and also element but understand your not able to swap a "mini SUV" motor into our chassis and try to bar? How would this affect me? Any info will be greatly appreciated

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I'd say to ask a BAR official or referee, or check out the BAR and CARB websites rules and regulations for your state.

Maybe....Engine must be same age or newer than the car you put it in? Whatever you do, it will be tested as the newest part? Like you put an 05 Accord engine in an 01 civic, it will be emission tested as an 05 Accord?

Check your local regulations and officials for the correct answers.

Might be a nightmare for the next owner if you don't document the whole process.

HTH

Re: K24a4 swap into em2

Just to help your case, the K24 isn't only found in the CRV/Element. It's also found in the Acura TSX (and, if you don't know, it's also known around the world as the Euro Accord)
