The units don't look interchangeable, at least according to the service manual. The 97's have what is labeled and ECM and 98's have a PCM (Powertrain Control Module).

i dont see why they wouldnt work unless they changed something with the 98+ accord 3.0

all years are the same motor and all are OBDII. the engines never increased in size.

call dennis and see if you can take his out to compare.
