first off i'd like to say i tried searching.... anyway, what is the difference in an F22b2 and an F22b1 engine?.... also, what do those mean..... any specific thing or just a code?.. sorry if it's stupid.. but sometimes you just got to ask...

 

The F22B1 came in the 94-97 Accord EX. It's a 2.2L SOHC VTEC with about 147tq and 145hp.

The F22B2 came in the 94-97 Accord LX & DX. It's a 2.2L SOHC non-VTEC with, I think, 130hp and I don't know the tq.

 

couldnt have asked for a better explanation..... i have a F22b2 and i now feel really depressed about that now... lol..... but whatever.... got any suggestions first mods i should make on my '95 LX (engine mods)?.... or just the norm ... intake,header, and exhaust...

 

What TouringAccord said plus...

The F22B1 also was standard in the wagon and I believe the tq. for the B2 is 139.

 

np

If you want an intake and don't have to worry about getting CARB legal parts, then you could just get a eBay intake and put a K&N filter on it. For a header, buy a F22B1 (EX) header, it'll perform just as well as say a DC Sports. For exhaust, I would suggest something quite, like a APEXi WorldSportII or something. But those parts are only going to give you minimal gains.

You can also do head swap to the H23 or H22 heads. You could do a F22B1 head swap but it's probably not worth it unless you really want to stay SOHC. Just run a search or go to the Prelude forum and look at the FAQ sticky, then find the hybrid section and you'll find some good info on the DOHC swap onto F blocks.

You could also go turbo if youd like.

 

...underdrive pulley???... helps acceleration i believe.... correct me if i'm wrong...

You could go for I/H/E but those are really just noise mods IMO. The F22B2 doesn't do so well on those mods (probably 15-20 whp if your lucky). I would invest that money in suspension mods or start saving for a H22 or turbo kit.

probably not worth it on a stock motor

 

have been considering saving or H22 from japan.... trustworthy or will i get a piece of crap.... cause i mean... it's almost too good to be true.... H22,5spd tranny, ECU, .... i think those are the main things in the package but anyway.... it is only like $1500 for all that

 

just make sure you do your research on the company you buy from, make sure they are reputable.

 

1500 would be a good deal for an entire swap. You are always taking a chance buying a used engine but any repuatble importer will give at least a start-up guarantee.
