Below is the thread I created in the Prelude forum summarizing what my situation is and exactly what I need. So if it sounds like It doesnt relate to the WTB part...that is why.

I'd like to start off by saying I've always been a Civic/Integra guy so if someone asked this question in the civic/del sol forum I would have many answers for them, but this scenario is a bit different.
Basically, a good friend of mine just bought a pretty mint oondition(body/interior) 93 base model Prelude for $500 bucks. The only problem is that the head is cracked. I dont know how it happened or anything like that, but I know it leaks a significant amount of oil. The guy that originally owned it said it started eating oil frequently so he brought it to a mechanic that said there is a crack in the head.

So basically, he is looking for either a new head or the complete longblock. He's not interested in doing an H Series swap even though it would be beneficial performance wise. I've already searched http://www.hmotorsonline.com as they are the most reputable online place I know of but they don't have much in terms of F series.

Now that you have some background as I hate people that start threads that are vague as hell and ask a stupid question like "where can I buy a motor" as there are hundreds of threads on these subjects, here are my questions. To you Prelude/Accord guys this should not be a difficult question.

1. What is the EXACT motor that would be in this car? It is a BASE model 1993 Prelude. I know its an F series but I'm not sure if its an F20 or an F22 as I do not know much about Preludes so I wont lie like I do. I do not have access to the car right now and I've personally never seen it before so I havent had the chance to figure this out. While shopping for heads knowing the motor code would be somewhat beneficial, haha.

2. Other than Hmotors and local junkyards because all of my local junkyards have squat in terms of Hondas. Once in a while you'll find a Civic but teenagers have already stripped the hell out of them. Luckily I know I should be able to find the whole swap and/or the head for this motor pretty cheap as these are usually scrapped for H Series. Are there any places that you guys can reccomend?

3. I know that many of you would say "its not worth it", and "do this instead" but he really has no interest in performance or anything along those lines. He's basically interested in buying a nice car for $500 bucks, throwing a grand or so into it, and having a decent car to drive around. So you guys don't have to waste your time with those options.

Finally, I'd like to say that I appreciate all legit responses as I could use some honest opinions. I know this post is longer than it needs to be but as I said earlier I wanted to be as descriptive as possible as I HATE vague threads with horrible grammar. Then after you help them...they dont check the post for another week. I'll be checking this fairly often so if anyone asks a question I'll answer it to the best of my knowledge ASAP.

Thanks ALOT for any information in advance. I appreciate it very much!
