1991 Acura Legend (Engine is Done!) - Acura Forum

buffalosouljaa · 02-13-08, 12:35 AM

I am getting ready to purchase a 1991 Acura Legend LS Coupe and the engine is pretty much gone in it. It needs a engine block and a head gasket. So I'm overall getting another engine. Its just way too much money to straight out order it so I'm resulting to eBay. The only problem is that I want to get the right engine for the car. On the website, it tells me 1991-1996 but I know after 1993 they started making Type II Engines. I know in 1991 it was Type I and that's what I feel I need to go with. Is it that big of a deal for me to any other engine rather than a 1991? This would help me on my search to get my car on the road as soon as possible. Please reply ASAP. I need advice.

The Type II is a more powerful engine. Most people upgrade, not downgrade.
