My accord use to have a 2.7L V6 C27A Honda Motor unfortunately it broke down and now i need another engine for it, i was wondering if the JDM C27A Acura Legend 88-90 v6 engine would fit in my honda accord 1996 with a automatic stock transmission?

well im not really familiar with accord motors, mainly civics.but it looks like it has the same engine code but different year.so that means the block and head are similiar to that of a 96. for sure intake manifolds are different. 88-90 are obd0. which means wirng and emisions diagram is very different to that of a 96.a 96 is obd1 or obd 2 depending when in 96 it was built. your best bet is to stick with the year of your car or newer when choosing a motor for it.Not to mention in Cali its illegal to wap in an older motor in your car, maybe its diff. from where u at.check out the forums of Honda-tech. com
