the K24 will fit but is very expensive. I would stick with the B series. they are tried and trueBaldy201 said:The TSX motor will be a tight fit under your hood. IDK if any one else has done it before. If you are handy that may be something to shoot for. If the 2.4L will fit then by all means go for it.

Yeah, I say stick with the B series do to the fact that parts are more accessible for em. If you want to up the Liters in your motor, bore over you block or, go with the H series. The only problem with the H series is the handling will decreas cuz of the heavier motor. But that will happen even with th K24. They have already swapped a K20 into a G3 however.

H22 doesn't throw handling off that is a fable. it doesn't weigh much more than a B series

This may seem like a weird question, but since your going to get a TSX, I was curious how tall you were. Reason I ask is because I know a guy who has kids and he's 6'2" who as a TSX, he has to sit with the seat all the way back and it literally leaves less than a foot or so of room between the back of his seat and the backseat. He gave me and a friend of mine a ride one day and I had to sit in the back seat. Although I couldn't sit normally I had to have my legs accross the entire backseat. I'm 6'3" so I'm just saying. The TSX is a cool car, but I wouldn't buy it because of its lack of space for a 4 door. Just something for you to consider.
