No need to even search, it's in the Accord FAQ

I don't think U understand, Im talking about h23 dohc vtec (220Hp) from 97+ lude that some importors are selling. I have h22 but it gave up on me, I was considering getting a h23 instead of another h22 or rebuild mine.

To rebuild, It will cost me roughly $1000.oo-1200.00
To buy another h22, cost me $950.00
To buy H23 Dohc 220HP, cost me $1100-$1300.00

No you're referring to the H23 VTEC Blue Top which is not USDM.

And the motor is pretty much the exact same as any other OBDII H series, therefore the FAQ holds true. Mounts are the same, wiring is the same, etc.

And I have a feeling it's more expensive than 1100.....

*edit*

Also if you do a search you will see all the differences as I know I've looked at that thread recently.

yes, exactly... Maybe I should have mention that before. I'm not quite sure why alot of importers have in their description as for 98-01 accord only and no one seems to mention that it is a board on into OBD1 accord as well.


Thanks

I believe the F20B is OBDII, you should be able to follow any of those swaps if you have any issues, or you could down convert to OBDI which is what I did.
