    Default Engine Swap Question,

    can you swap a B18 into an accord? how difficult would it be?

    I don't even think a B18 makes enough torque to really move an Accord, stick w/ F & H series homie.

    it's just about the same specs, in general, with the F series A/1 and B series A/1

    cheapest way out, boost the Fseries

    if you go h22, you won't have much to work with as far as turning up the boost

    the accord is to heavy for that size motor. those size motors should only go in a integra, civic, or crx. you need atleast a f20 in the accord. the h22 is your best way to go. didnt i give you a list of what motors are the best in the accord. why dont you just take my advice and put one of those motors in there. or just do a h23 head swap?
