I just got a steal from a friend who got stationed over seas and had to get rid of his project car real quick. I got his empty 95 accord and engine swap and tranny and all parts for $900, it just needs to be put together. I'm new to accords and I'm trying to figure out what engine I have. He said he ordered a jdm F22 swap b/c he wanted VTEC. But I cant figure out which model it is. It is a SOHC VTEC and has just F22B written on the block, no B1 or B2. What kinda confuses me is it has USA then some number written on the block?? Some help please. Thanks.

if its SOHC and vtec chances are its a f22b1. i belive jdm f22's were DOHC. dont quot me on that though

 

ya the f22b1 is vtec and the jdm f22 is dohc non vtec

 

Does the engine have a blue top valve cover looking like its cousin's h22 valve cover? If yes, that's the f22b DOHC.

 

No, the JDM F22B was/ is a DOHC NON-VTEC motor.

The F20C is a DOHC VTEC motor, looking much like the H22 with a blue valve cover.

 

:shakes head:
People correcting people with more wrong information...

Let's start over.

F22 SOHC VTEC = F22B1.
JDM F22B = DOHC nonVTEC.
DOHC VTEC F-series with blue valve cover = F20B.

F20C = S2000 engine.
