so...why not just do an automatic swap?...the V6 auto would instantly make the car a nice fast cruiser.

For a swap of this magnitude, an automatic transmission seems like a pitiful companion.

This has gone full circle now. We are answering questions that have already been asked and bringing up points that have as well.

a 6 speed manual would be epic for a CB7

They rise their wooden pints and they yoik and sing
And they fight and dance 'till the morning

to be honest, this thread cant REALLY go anywhere without somebody actually jumping in and doing it. otherwise it is all speculation. its good to plan ahead and research things, but you wont know what hurdles youll come across and how to handle them until you actually get there.

Have you actually driven a 5 speed V6 powered Honda lately?

The 6 speeds are stronger, but the 5 speeds are no slouches, and honestly, it would have some advantages in driving. Don't forget the 3rd gear syncro issue with the 6 speeds.

The OFFICIAL how to add me to your ignore list thread!

2 things

Legend has a C32 (iron block)

Legend motor setup goes north-south + wont fit in the CB left to right

I still think a J block to K tranny adapter is the answer to the tranny issue
