Has Anyone Done a 3.7L TL-S Engine Swap to a 3G Non-Type S?

hey guys

just something I was wondering about today (and did searches, didn't come up with much?)

Has anyone taken a 3.7L TL-S engine and done a swap out? Rather, installed it in a Non-Type S 3G? Is this possible?

Isn't the TL-S engine a 3.5? I think only the MDX has a 3.7--so far.

SORRY! I Meant a 3.5L TL-S haha not the 3.7...but ALSO GOOD QUESTION!?

has anyone done a 3.7 or 3.5? There has been a lot of talk about a 3.7 for the 09 4G TL so I'm wondering if it the current 3.7 would even fit or is Acura planning on modifying it so that the 3.7 would fit on the 4g TL?

still without a dyno report though... I'm doubting the gains are worth the investment made... Ithey were great, the dyno results would have been 1st page news.

I am pretty sure you can do as before with older models... b16 put a b18 or b20 head on it... so I am pretty sure you can put a j35 head on a j32 or even on a j30... as for gains no clue... as for swapping the entire motor (what a waste of money unless you have a blown motor)
