Hello all. I have a 2010 accord that is in need of an engine. I want to use a jdm engine however I’m having a hard time figuring out if its actually compatible. Accord is equipped with k24z2, and all jdm engines listed online as “compatible” are k24a. According to my research jdm k24a engines can vary in power from around 160-200hp and a telltale way to figure out how much power it has is by pulling the cam cover and checking how many cam lobes there are. This is as far as I’ve got, how do I figure out which would work? 2 lobe or 3 lobe? Or is it just not possible with this ecu? I keep hitting dead ends and not sure where to go from here other than hearsay. Does anyone have experience with this?

I think I figured it out. It seems like all I would have to do is take off every engine accessory and sensor, then transfer it over to the k24a block. There may be compatibility issues with the vtec solenoid but afaik there are workarounds. Does anybody have any recommendations to source good jdm Honda engines? eBay listings are scary. Many have very good rapports with eBay but if you Google them theres no shortage of unhappy people. I’m going to avoid the eBay route altogether, saw some decent options on the east coast but would like input from someone experienced with this
