Will a F20B easily swap into a 92 Civic DX 4 door?

Hey thank you to both of you guyz for the help, do yall know of some good places on the web to get all the parts that i will need? What car does this engine come out of , the web site i plan on buying it from http://www.jazzproparts.com/Pr...Specs says that its an Accord SiR-T Type R motor.
i need to know so that i can order replacement parts

Another question, is it worth the money to add a turbo and nitrous, after a high performance rebuild

an accord sir-t there is an auto and 5 spd version the auto version ahs 180 ps and teh 5spd has 200 ps.
as far as repalcement parts you can try honda of japan. you wont find too many oem parts easily for it in a continetn where the car was never sold.
hell it wont be easy finding aftermarket parts either.

Hmotorsonline.com! And v4lu3s is right, **** will be HARD to find. If its somethin a lil different u want, try a Type S H22. Or just go with a H22 with Euro R manifold and tranny!

some parts shoud be very similiar to the h22 so replacement parts shouldn't be that hard. they are almost identical motors. Im sure somewhere there are specs where u can compare the h22 with the f20b. If not, maybe USDM accord parts will work.

I remember it being a P13 head. Just PnP head and type-s (samilar) cams (manual trans). Few people on this board have one, they said it was P13. I have never worked on one thou.

my friend, i think he posts as Jdogg on here stated it was not a p13 casting when he had his f20b head pulled for port work at RLZ. It has smaller valves than the h22a, and the port design wa different as well.

Ahh, I have never seen one. Had a few people tell me that they were P13 casting, but never saw one with my own eyes.
