K20???

So i was thinkin....is there a reason we dont see CL's with K20's? The K20 of course is from the Acura RSX/Civic SI motor...its a great, high reving powerplant...anyone ever see it in a CL?

Nope. It's a 6k engine, and we need a guinea pig. But it can be done, with enough money. Frankly, I only see the wiring to be a mess. Personally, I'd go with the K24 with the K20A head. This has been discussed before btw. Mods might have to close this thread.

k20 = no. not enough torque for our heavy cars. k24block w/k20 head = yes! THAT is a motor someone should put in a CL. Lookout for Starboy2nv, he's got something like this up his sleeve for his CL

its too expensive of a swap, for the cost of a k20 you can throw in a fully built h22 or boosted out f22.

the prices will go down. those JDM engine dealers cant compete with the street prices. rsx's are getting stolen left and right.

ls1 ftw (like they say, anything's possible...)
56k don't bother -- cliff notes, it's a civic packed with a vette powertrain
