Will a 2.0 and 5 speed out of an 89 accord lxi move my 93 cx faster than a d15b7 and a cx 5 speed?

I dont think so, If you are going to pull the motor in your hatch, I would do a B16 or B18. there not to expensive.

Filliam H. Muffman

yes, now figure out how you're gonna get it in there.

The difference between a 2.0 and a b18 is the 2.0 is free. The 2.0 won't fit in my hatch?

you could probly make it fit, but itd be hard as hell to do so. a b18c would pretty much bolt right in... to put in the engine dont forget about all the other things you have to use...

its basicly, with a few exeptions, the same as an h22 swap. i think somone on here did this. it would'nt be very fast, as im pretty sure it only has about 130 hp. but it would have enough torque to be fun to daily drive i guess.

Why would you do that? Will it? Sure. Should you? I'm going to go with no on this one.

Enough said. Get the kit for it and do it. Also if you ever get bored go pick up a H22 and drop it in since the kits already in for it.

actually thet 2.0 uses totally diff mounts than the h22...its an a20 engine... and if its nto fuel injected its not worht anythign and if it is its worht about $5 more than teh carbed engine.

i think you should go with the 2.0 just cuz its free. itll cost you some serious money to get that to fit well and ****, but hey, with whatever money you save, you could resleeve the block.

sorry, but i dont know much of anything abotu this kind of swap, but goodluck man. be sure to let us know how it goes!

mixmastabob

Man the A20? Why would you even want one of those in your car? Ive driven my friend's Accord LX-i hatch... Its torquey but thats only compared to my 1.5

dinko

you'll always hear "you get what you pay for" do u have any money saved up. cuz if you're gonna try to swap any engine with 0$ in the back i dont think its gonna happen

a20= 120hp - 122 ft-lbs compared to my d15b7= 102hp - 93ft-lbs.

Or should I just do a mini-me swap and switch to an ex/si tranny?

bboyoxygen

The D16 head and tranny would be your best bet for cost effectiveness and horsepower increase. The motor may be free but getting it in your car is gonna cost you.

BauleyCivic

It would be too much of a pain in the *** to make work, not to mention the motor would be at least 15 years old? Whats the point? Just get a JDM D15B with tranny for $700 and be done with it.
