Default 3.2 TL Engine swap to Accord

Is it possible to swap an 04-08 3.2 TL engine into my 07 Accord coupe auto 2.4 I4?

Do what everyone else does...I/H/E...

FYI - You have a new car and it has a warranty, you don't need to swap in a TL motor. Chances are your car is automatic, right? By the time you bought the motor and everything else needed...you could've just bought a TL. It would cost you over $10k to do that swap.

Get an intake, exhaust, maybe a header....go from there if you really think you need the extra power.

What Blk said is basically true. Stay away from headers though, you have a four-cylinder. It takes away low-end power and replaces it with high-end power. Basically, slower acceleration.

Do you know if aftermarket engine parts for the K24A4 will fit the K24A8 and if there is really any major difference between the engines besides the horsepower and torque?

There's minor differences between the engines, anything labeled for a K24 will/should fit either motor.
