if h22 post wont bolt to the f23 block, how do i f swap my car?

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Will the OEM mount fit?

Would a F22 bracket work? Is it any different?

I know a lot of people just do an H2B/F2B swap to eliminate most of the headache. Use B/D series mounts, the B trans, B linkage, B axles, B clutch. The only part that's a hassle is the header.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

solution= stick with B or D in a civic. Eliminates the headache all together

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

this has nothing to do with the trans. even if i was going f2b id still be having this issue.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

you've contributed nothing to this thread. your post is null

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Well than ignore the comment and move on

But on a serious note, i thought you had to use H mounts. Could be wrong though

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

thats what i thought. but apparently we are wrong.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

i dont know a lot about this swap but as far as i know its exactly like a H swap except one mount is deferent. Im not sure what mount to use but ive heard some reall effin horror stories about obtaining it

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Im pretty sure hasport makes the mounts exactly for a F23 EG swap

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

the F23 is strictly temporary, building this for frankenstein at the moment

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Actually, it does. H2B tilts the motor forward so it sits up like a B/D series instead of being tilted back as the F and H series do normally. When you do this, you use the B series mounts. This is why I asked.

I have somewhat of an interest in the weird things Honda did and solutions to these odd issues that arise.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

according to the site, they only make D, B, H, K, J for the EG.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Hasport H-mounts are the ones that fit i believe

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Why not just use that H22 bracket you have on the F23 block...?

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

the bolt holes dont line up and the post hits the cam gear.

see photos

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

Everything says the H22 mounts work. However I found this. I'm assuming the post is from an Accord.

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

i'm looking at the 5th image where the bolt holes line up. i guess then last image is where it's hitting the cam gear..? just grind it down for clearance...

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

thats what i thought. thanks dude

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

let us all know when you find out! this thread is helpful

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

contact greg at go autoworks, i belive he was making an adapret bracket for a h2d or somethnig like that, looked like what you need

Re: my little f swap dilemma
 

got it figured out, 90-93 accord bracket bolts right up, clears the cam gear, and takes the hmount.
