interchangeableness between Type II Legend engine/tranny and our engine/tranny?
I was reading up the history of our car on Wikipedia and it seems our engine is practically the same engine in the Type II Legend except the Type II makes 230hp instead of 200hp due to a higher flowing intake manifold and a more aggressive camshaft. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_C_engine#C32A) Also the Type II has a 6speed manual instead of our 4speed auto. Think these parts are interchangable?

they are to a certain extent. For one, they bolt right up. But if you're going to do the wiring for the ecu and mount the clutch pedal, good luck....

Just do a manifold swap from a Type II and save a lot of money doing so. Take my wallet's word on that.

How hard is that to do and how much would it cost?
