Is there any other motor that can be swapped into a 4th gen? - Honda Prelude Forum

I'm just curious if there is any other motor that can be swapped into a 4th gen? Would it be possible to swap out a Acura CL Type S engine? I'm no mechanic and don't have any extenxive knowledge, but was just wondering what would be the difficulties or impossiblities of this. Guess I'm just dreaming a bit, but 220 lbs of torque from 3000 to 5000 rpms sounds real nice. Any comments, thoughts, greatly appreciated.

Anything can be done with enough money...

define swap

swap means relatively simple, some diffculties

I would define that as cut and weld, completely custom. The fact that you're asking means that you can't afford it lol

basically no you couldnt do that unless you either had LOTS of money or all the equipmet available. you would be the first that i have heard of to do this though

But of course I can't afford it, damn it. That why I said I was dreaming...lol. Other wise I'd already to it. I know that enough money can make anything possible. But before anything becomes possible you've got to have the idea first. Then, if you're really inspired, you could swin in debt for rest of your single life. Haha. I was just hoping for more information between the differences between these two engines, their engine bay measurements, their trannies, weight, anything. Haha. Oh well.
