looks like he got a little mixed up. im assumeing he is talking about the 2.5L DOHC C block in the Aspire (JDM) which makes 200 hp.

I wish i could swap one of those in

 

why can't you?

what years were they made???

 

I like how they measure horsepower in Kilowatts and Torque in Newton-meters
Damn metric system!

 

yeah i like that too
btw the way y would u swap that 2.5 in your coupe when that 200hp 2.5=to your 2.7 160hp.....isnt it eqaul?
well i have a 3.2 tl swap anways....

 

huh???? you have a 3.2 tl engine...or what please clarify that post

 

Do you have any pics of your 3.2 TL engine in your Legend. It wouldn't fit without some major mods.
This is something I'm going to have to see to believe.

Why would anyone choose a 2.7 SOHC with 160 hp over a 2.5 DOHC engine w/ 200 hp?
Who cares about the .2 Liters? DOHC and 40 more horses more than makes up for it

 

so let me get this right. the C blocks are all the same right ?? our 2.7L is the same as the old 3.0L NSX block except the NSX has been bored ? in this case i would just keep a C block over any other block.

as you can see the only DOHC engines we can put in within a good size is the J25A or the C30A from the NSX. now are engines are called C27A1 ( the guy who posted this called them A's) so who knows are top end might be really close to the J25A or C30A. to bad none of us had some engines to play around with

 

J25A is SOHC, not DOHC

 

:eek2: completly missed that one. i swear I have seen a DOHC 2.5 before ? ill take a look.
