Switched the reservoirs over from the EX to the Si. Still has the 15/16 cylinder though. Just the clearance I needed.

Lookin real good man! Keep it up!

I'm headin up north for the holiday...perhaps we could link up and grab some coffee and talk H2B's? Just a thought.

Bently_Coop

Yeah we could do that. Ill send you a PM. Is yours almost done?

flatblack-h22

QSD kit, 1/2" over, single row pulley. Light massage.

Dorkenheimer

Bently, I'm not even close to done, that's part of the reason why I'd love to meet up! I could use some pointers, and see what you did to accomplish yours. That would be awesome!

Flatblack, You're using the same set up I have then. I was told there is a way to fit the H2B in an EG chassis with no hitting of the frame. That's kinda my goal with my install, but if it's not feasible, then out comes the sledge if all other options are exhausted.

Bently_Coop

My setup is a little different and a tighter fit with the EF chassis. If your going to bang the frame rail use a torch to heat the metal first. It will help the metal move a little easier.

I have a 94 del sol and in reality I didn't need to hit the frame. I did because I was afraid it wouldn't fit since it was my first h2b. The only downer is the timing belt cover doesn't fit.

Dorkenheimer

Not really too worried about the timing belt cover. Although, the peace of mind of it being in place would be nice. Thanks for the reassurance hybridmiklo!

Dorkenheimer

So I think I have all the correct components to line up my alt belt correctly, now, I want to focus on converting it to OBD1. What all do I have to do in order to do this? Already have a p28. Some dizzy wiring? Jumper harness? This will be my weak area I'm sure. Thinking of biting the bullet and getting an RBC manifold from Rosko machined up and run ID injectors. Concerned on what I'll have to do to make it all work.

Bently_Coop

Is your engine not OBD1? I am going to end up with a conversion harness for mine. You can use jumper harnesses to keep the cost down.

Dorkenheimer

It's a 2000 H23A, thus, OBDII. I'm not 100% on where to start with a conversion.

Bently_Coop

You have a couple options. A custom harness, rework the engine harness and chassis harness or adapters.

Rywire has both services available, only thing is they dont offer a standard H series harness.

Panicwire is local to you, Not sure if he has done Honda's yet but its worth an email for a quote and to see whats available.

From what I've gathered SO FAR, this is my rough conclusion on how wiring is gonna go:

1. Use my existing 93 Civic Si harness, since it's already wired for vtec and an OBDI harness to begin with. Same with ECU. Will also be purchasing S300....er, something.

2. Lenghten alternator wires.

3. Convert distributor to OBDI by changing around some wires to work with my harness.

4. Run ID injectors, not sure how those will wire up. Hopefully simple.

Now, from what I've come to understand that's about all that's needed to run it OBDI.
A few added bonuses of using my harness is it's not wired for the stuff I don't need. My ECU won't be looking for an EGR system like the h23 harness is wired for. Other stuff like that. This is my weak area for sure, so I think I'll learn the most when tackling this!

EDIT: After looking at Rywire's site more, I'm sure they'll be getting my business as well.

Cdubz628

I have a h22a4 in a Eg I'm having a serious problem with the intake manifold I need a diagram or something because I can't figure out where all the vacuum Hoses belong took the thing apart any picture diagrams or advice would greatly be appreciated the car runs but cuts off down the rd accelerations weak as well?

Bently_Coop

Cdubz- your question is more engine related. Best advice I can give is search the Prelude FAQ's or start a thread in the 92-00 Civic section.

Bently_Coop

Small update. Still need to shorten the spark plug wire from distributor though.

No doubt rywire has nice products. But the wiring is actually pretty easy to do at home. Throw the obd2 harness aside. Use the harness that came with your car. Put it over the H engine. Most of the clips will plug in. Extend the ones that don't. There may be the odd clip that is incorrect. If so cut it off and replace it with the clip from the obd2 harness. Then install your engine and plug it into the chassis. It's that simple.

Bently_Coop

Holy batman action in the H2B thread.

Or you could de pin and re pin. Solid advice though. I do think electrical work scares quite a bit of people.

Going through the suspension on my car currently. Within the next 3 months or so ill be ordering a header.

That CFSPC looks cool mate

Bently_Coop

Thanks guys. Appreciate it.

Dorkenheimer

I hope so! Really wanted to get a tucked harness but never followed through with it... yet. I will be turning to this forum for help when the time comes. Thanks!

Dorkenheimer

Bently, you settle on a header choice yet?

Bently_Coop

Most likely logic or highend from swapshop racing. There's also a vendor here that sells em.

Did you see the PLM on craigslist portland a couple weeks ago?

The Logic/Highend are great. I had better Dyno results but worse ground clearance with the modified PLM Tri-Y. I know BlueHBCivic was pleased with his modified PLM RMF copy... Either of these headers you should be happy.
Does anyone know if the PLM H2B Logic copy perform as well as the actual Logic?
