RE: 98 AV6 EX Sedan Swap
ahhhh then you didn't help me at all,i was hoping it was a I-4 so i can know if a V6 would function properly when dropping it in the bay of a 4 cylinder. and why didn't you just change your ECU,cylinder heads and piston's and just call it a day?i think you would've had a fairly nice gain...at least 40-50 more horses.

HPJ: The head does fit, but the pistons have to be filed to allow for the larger valves. At $600, why not do the whole engine?!? Also, it's probably more work to disassemble the lower half to change the pistons than the entire swap.

Jon is nicer now that he's a Mod... c'mon, reveal your true self! hahaha j/k! Jon is a nice guy...
i think what HPJ mean was that if you used to have a I4 and put a V6... or just from a V6 to another V6 type-s....
