Default Decide to ask the Basement

Ok so I was wondering since the engine code for the NSX is c30a and the code for the Older legend was c27a could you swap a vtec head from a nsx motor to a legned motor. I know that the legnd in sohc (really dohc) and the nsx is Dohc cam (quad cam). But I am seriosly considering doing this to my legend if it is possible.

:fawk: to anybody planning on flaming

good luck finding an NSX head, even if it is possible, which I highly doubt.

I figures that the head would be hard to find.

Ok got some images, the motors look very similar just flipped around this means I should not have a problem with the exaust manifold or intake manifold, The one problem I might have is the valves in the legend are hydrolic and manual and I am not sure about the NSX.

It might work. That'd be a damn mean 2.7 if it did.
