  • Acura TL nsx engine??

    my boy just bought a 1999 Acura TL not type s or anything like that. now looking at the motor its clearly a DOHC BUT the TLs dont offer a DOHC at least i couldnt find where it said it did. the only 3.2 V6 DOHC VTEC engine i could find was on a NSX but these motors look completly different. and we took it to honda and they said its deff not the right motor in ther but they didnt tell us what one was in ther. any ideas?

                  C30A 3.0L
                  C32B 3.2L

                  if its either of those, then you have a NSX motor champ

                      heres a pic of what his engine looks like exactly. (not his exact engine from google pics) but you can clearly see on his the two covers for the timing belts. not one but two.

                      and where do you find the block code on it? cus like i said honda in watertown said its the wrong motor and the vin number says its a sohc. so niether agree with actual motor thats in it and its got new dual exhaust headers all that nice stuff so someone deff built it slightly

                          it does but like i said its DOHC and they dont have those and his fathers a dot mechanic and he says its deff dual overhead cams and its jsut confusing the shit out of us.

                              well TECHNICALLY its a DOHC since its a single cam for each cyl head.... but if it were true DOHC there would be 4 cams ....
