F23a1 Engine with a Gsr Tranny.
I was told I could do a 5 speed swap with a gsr tranny on to my F23a1 engine but I was told I would need some kind of an adapter can anyone tell what that is? and Could someone give me a list of what I will need for this 5 speed swap.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Re: F23a1 Engine with a Gsr Tranny.
H-series and F-series share the same block design. because the H swaps are more common, everyone defaults to calling it H2B.
sure B-series transmissions are good if you have a chassis that came with a B-series (in one model or the other...) but this adapter plate that someone told you you could use is gonna run you more than an H22/23, F20B transmission with LSD..!
try looking for an H22/23 or F20B transmission. it'll have shorter gears than your F23 and should bolt right in without any adapters or modifications.

Re: F23a1 Engine with a Gsr Tranny.
andy i am also doing to g23 Frankenstein motor with my f23 bottom end and h22 head
a few things to remember you have to convert to obd1 or you will have issues with the tunning but it can be done with obd2
also you will need a f23 and h22 water pump
press the gear from the h22 wp into the f23 housing
also the f23 bottom end has 6 oil ports wile the h22 head will have 8
plug 2 of them by treading some bolts into the ports and use a h23 head gasket
this may differ from head to bottom end
you will have to run your own water pipng also and the swap i have found says to use a b series trans but save your self h22 all the way but i am going to put a b20 crv trans with the transfer case and see if i can get awd out of it if any one has any idea on that one let me know
oh i almost for got you will also need a the h22 timing cog also the timming is the most important part of this swap !!!!!!!!!!
