Prelude or Not

I have an 86 lx accord stickshift. I want to know if a prelude engine would fit in my car and if so how much of a difference would that make.

I thought an 84-87 Prelude motor uses the same mounts but not 100% sure.
Anybody know?

Nope, I've been through this before. However, I have seen a fuel injected motor that came in that body style Accord that was 2L DOHC and was produced only in Japan. Not sure who imports them though. Also, check out Place Racing, they have a mount kit for that Accord.
