I stopped by the guy doing my motor swap's house today, and he had the car rolled out a bit from hoisting it in. I'm no Honda expert, but is it me or is something not right here???? What should I say to him??? I think im getting screwed but I dunno.

 

its not a h22

 

dude that looks like a f22, you did get gipped....

 

Doesn't look like one. Its missing a battery, headers, the little things - like ac and ****..............fill that in with your mind - and you'll figure out what else is missing.

Edit: Its definately not an H22...........the valve cover is different - easiest way to tell

from the looks of that downpipe sticking up its gonna be turbo.....i like how the slave cylinder is up on the hood.....good shop choice dude....

 

nah, youre not getting ripped off turn her over, shell run. vtec is gonna tear your head off in that ride yo! looks like your car is in good company too, sitting next to that 1g dsm too. LUCKY!

 

Yeah that guy is ******* you over...that engine is NOT an H22 by any means...it looks like a SOHC VTEC engine from an Accord...which is not going to be very quick at all

I don't know why all you other guys are being like that...this guy is getting fucked and you're all like "no it's fine". What the hell? if i was that guy I would be pissed...and scared because someone is ******* with my car.

 

i hope this is a joke... that looks like a d16 sohc engine...

 

Did he say he was doing an H22 VTEC swap or just a VTEC engine swap?? Your manifold is not even going to bolt to that if you have an H22 manifold....which I hope you do if you wanted an H22 swap.

What's the engine code on the front of the block say?

 

It looks like an F23a1 Sohc Vtec from an accord. If your were suppose to get an H22 i would kick some ***.

Okay, I went back over and to my relief some progress has been made:

Progress...it just looks like he threw on an h22a valve cover over the SOHC motor and put up the turbo kit!

Anyway, hope it works out for you man.

 

That is a different valve cover isn't it.............ha

 

He just placed the valve cover on top of the old valve cover - WTF?

 

That's custom!

 

THIS IS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT HELL YEAH
