You will need a karcepts adapter. A crv passenger mount (04-05). The rbb manifold will clear the radiator support. Will need kpro to run. Your 5 spd tranny will bolt up.

If you run a rbb manifold, you will need a karcepts adapter.

no issues w/ hitting..i did roll the frame where the rbc meets a lil so it wouldn't hit..but i ran a Type S tranny w/ my motor..so much better the the stock 5spd tranny..but just for future reference, do the K20 head swap..my motor was stock and it only redlines at 7500 rpms even w/ the kpro...:( if anyone is interested, i still have my RC 440cc injectors for this swap for sale..

Your tps is most likely hitting the radiator support or it was removed from the tb. In either case, you will have have the parameters tuned, in kpro. Possibly even replace it. You will also have to modify the radiator support so that it doesn't hit anymore.

Where is a place that I can get the required parts for the swap? and how much will they cost?
junkyard, parts for sale section, k20tuned.com....there are alot of places. start doing your research for the swap.

But isn't revving at 7500 RPM on a K24 equivalent to a k20 revving at roughly 8500? I thought the stroke was longer on the K24's.
True, the dc5 head may flow a little better. If you get a longblock, not worth swapping heads in my opinion.

If anyone has any questions about the tsx swap in the ep3, than go to ephatch, and there will be a write up I made recently in the swap section.
