H22A Head on a F22B bottom end...It can be done??

yea how much $$$ is involved. Last swap I did took me about 2 weeks (weekends and a few evenings only)

money and beer will be involved, there will be a few people workin on it. My buddy w/ a boosted 96 Accord will probably help too. Just want it to go as smooth and as quick as possible

that's about right. I couldn't seem to figure out what I wanted to do the motor before I dropped it in. I kept changing my mind and what not. Then I couldn't find the tranny I wanted. It was stressful.

beer sounds good right about now... think I'll go have one

a couple of my friends swapped a GSR from one car to another in a weekend, it shouldnt take us much longer

well it may take a little longer. you will probably want to put in a new clutch while the engine is out of the car and go ahead and check and make sure no seals or anything are needed. Any H22A clutch SHOULD fit. I will double check. I would go with an exedy clutch (stage 1 if this car is going to be your dd). I have used them with good results.

as for modifications to the F20B, I would go with an Accord Euro R intake manifold and a tuned P73 ecu (ITR). The stock IM is like the stock IM on the USDM H22A. It has 2 runners. The Euro R IM has shorter single runners and is good for about 6 extra WHP. It also sounds a lot better too. Get a good Header also. Other than that, you should be good to go. Keep it simple and you will have a fast, strong, and reliable engine.

about that btw, the car is auto, im changing it to 5spd

and the engine im getting comes w/ all that i believe, the Euro R IM, and the Euro R ECU

I mean the H22A euro R (red top), not F20B euro R (blue top).

your getting a EURO R? That's the best choice IMO! Although the f20b has the best gearing the euro r has the next best gearing and is the Type s h22 bigger brother.

I think he is confused.

[Ludester]

lol... the best question is how much is the motor he is getting? then we will know what he is actually getting by the price

[allmotoronly]

yea. personally I would rather have the F20B than the H22A euro R. The h22A euro R runs about $4500... F20B runs about $2200. The extra $2300 could do a lot of things to that engine.

[Ludester]

that is so true! I think I want to build a f20b... just see what it can do.
