I'd choose the Legend over the CL too in that case! As for gas mileage, idk why you get such crappy mileage, i beat the living daylights out of my CL but i get great gas mileage, maybe cuz i maintain my CL like you maintain your Legend.

4cyl can be fun no doubt, but with out throwing gobs of money, or doing something radical, the CL may not be the best starting point.

But if u did happen to build a 4 cyl for ur CL, i assure u you might be able to understand it from a different perspective. Personally i can't stand the lack of power in the stock f23 acura put in there and cant understand why they put that motor in such a heavy car, but after riding in Shaun's CL (H22 Euro-R), Arber's CL (supraman), my friend's built 92 f22 accord and an f23 turbo accord i was like wow, there is such a thing as a fun 4 cyl car.
yes, i agree the F23 is weak but a built v6 vs a 4cyl? you guys are seruisly saying you can't get more power of a V6 as a 4cyl? i mean, idk. i know honda's V6's aren't the most powerful and more expensive to work on, but i guess the later part is probably the reason.
I guess i just like bigger motors, more displacement, more cylinders. I don't think a 4cyl will ever be as smooth as a V6 or larger motor.
speaking of the LEGEND haha. I'm going to pick up my 18's today with the new tires installed haha!!

its not about the legend at all.

yeah V6s have that extra boost of torque over any 4 banger, but what drives me to decide my favorite powerplant is more than just number of cylinders, I mean im not like the average american car nut that thinks bigger is better. . . what motivates me is power-to-COST ratio, ill build what costs less to make fast

Hi-jacked
Wow this thread got hi-jacked bad. Anywho, I was checking out the way the K24 sits in a 2004 Accord. and I can see how the mounts for the 94-97 accord will sit in for a CL, still leaves me wondering how they will work... The other thing that I question is the way the transmission will work also, since the engine is now flipped into 180º's.
I've never built an engine nor have taken one out, but I'm really interested in doing this swap, since the H22 ... well like they say (out with the old, in with the new)
If anyone as some experience with K24 swaps or swaps for the 1st gen CL, I think this is where they need to be, and keep the thread going in that direction... not in C32 NSX engine direction. haha
