does anyone know if it's possible to put a C27A( 89" acura legend motor) into a crx. i'm looking to do something different from a the typical honda guys out there, this engine is a v-6 SOHC that is factory rated 170hp and 178lb/ft of torque stock. if anyone now if this will work in a daily driver let me know, or if you have comments hit me up.

If it is possible It would be a complete waist of time especially for a daily driver. 170 HP isn't worth it .

I dont think there is enough room, its hard enough to get a 2.2l in there. MAYBE if it was a 92+ civic

too heavy an engine?
too little room to work with?
too much frab?
too little horse power?
too much Cash in you wallet?

I saw that car at place when I was like 16 looking for a place to do my swap. I dont think it ever ran though.

I'll chime in with the "it's a stupid idea too" crowd

Here's one that's not too bad...northstar in a vw golf

and why is it green idiots that have these kind of ideas...the people that know how usually do something better...

sorry but that is a stupid ------- idea to put a v6 into a CRX.

some guy once told me to take an accord engine and put it into my crx...lol i told him to ---- off.

why?

hmm accord engine $1000-$2000
weight: too much
pain to put it in: too much

you can take a ------- HF motor and boost it and get it to 170whp and have less than half the weight.
