i blew my H22 and have no money to buy another h22 so i gonna go cheap and go with my last resort with the F22b1 SOHC VTEC.. its a free motor so i don't wanna hear n e body saying just go h22...

well the question is

1. i got the Hasport mount kit but the bracket on the driver (timing belt) side doesnt' line up correctly.. which bracket am i suppose to use?? the accord or prelude.. a bunch of people say they are the same but they aren't.. it doesn't line up correctly..i can't use the accord bracket because the hasport motor mount is to wide where the nuts are suppose to go into the bracket to motormount vs. the accord where the studs are right next to each other... HELP ME OUT HERE.. has anyone done this SWAP BEFORE.. i thought it was the same but its different i need help.. anylinks??

 

Before you say it, i'm already aware the pic is a b-series motor.


Have you tried taking the bracket (see pic) off of your H22 motor and bolting it to the F22 block? You have to remove the timing covers for this and the covers might not go back on.

Just a suggestion since I've never done the swap before.

 

i already tried.. doesn't fit.. the bracket from the Prelude doesn't line up with with accord motor... i call hasport because i bought the h/f series kit in EG but they say it was for the DOHC F22 not the SOHC VTEC F22... so basicaly in order to complete this swap you will have to make a custom BRACKET which i don't know how to do.... nobody in town doesn't do it either.. so i gotta go back to H22 power..
