Does anyone have picture of a h22,h23,or a b20 in a 3rd gen accord. Is it at all possible? If it is which engine would give me the most power and which would be the best cost/power package.

 

B20 VTEC

 

I dont think you can fit an h22 in a 3rd gen accord. I have a friend with a first gen integra (1st gen integra and 3rd gen accord hatch are identical from the looks of the engine bay etc) and he has a B18 swap in it and it is rather quick. A b20 swap should be possible.

 

a b swap is possable, and an h should fit in there i beleive custom axles is all that is needed

 

The h series is possible???? from the look of my friends integra the b18 was a squeeze. I am pritty sure those 2 cars share the same platform and chasis.

 

As we all know, anything is possible. Its all a matter of $$$$$.
Well, obviously building an H22 or boosting an H23 would yeild the most hp. Those engines make way more power than a B20. However, from a practicality standpoint, B20 is a good bet IMO.

 

i recommend crvtec, more torque and the great topend of DOHC vtec. its basically a crv block(2.0 liter) mated to either a b16 or b18c1 head(im not sure about the head).

 

any VTEC head works. It is all a mater of price. most people recomend the b16a head and then type r cams etc.

 

well a crvtec would be a good option

 

People put h22's in civic hatch's, they are really hard to fit in, you would have to cut the firewall, but I think that the 3rd gen accords have more room than a hatch.

 

this would be the same thing as a CRVTEC

 

Whats with CRVTEC? Is it Honda-Tech lingo for a CRV with the B20 VTEC engine?

 

Its Honda lingo for a b20 block with a vtec head.

 

None of the B20's were VTEC stock? I thought some were.

 

no, none

 

Here you go:

 

One more thing is it possible to put a v tec head on my stock 2.0 single overhead cam engine? did Honda ever make a single overcam v tec head for the 2.0

 

no

 

hey just for MY information, what were the engine codes for the 3rd gen accord? wasn't it like A20 something? what was the hp/tq output on those motors?

 

Ive seen both of these swaps done and which ever swap you choose, a motor mount kit is a good investment.

 

A20A3. As for the specs, try http://www.cars.com

 

The carb'd engines were A20A1 and the fuel injected engines were A20A3 (or BT for '86, I believe). Carb'd were 98 hp @ 5500 rpm , 86-87 EFI were 110 hp and 114 ft. lbs of torque @ 4000 rpm, and 88-89 EFI were 120 hp @5800 rpm and 122 ft. lbs of torque @ 4000

 

not a 3rd gen USDM but I´ll post this eye candy anyway guy I know owns this car...


H22a

 

I think I need a napkin.

 

i just messed myself.
