Ok all, my 1990 Accord EX (5spd) just hit 200k miles about 2 months ago and I'm in a debate mode on what I should do with it. I have an h23 head that I was planning on rebuilding and dropping on the engine while also rebuilding the bottom end. I was also thinking of just getting an H22 and swapping it in. And option 3 is rebuilding and boosting the F22 and just keeping it SOHC. What do you guys think the best option(s) are?

1) Swap in an H22 (Rebuild F tranny or swap in H tranny)

2) Rebuild the F bottom end and H23 head (w/boost?) (Also tranny rebuild)

3) Rebuild and boost the F (Also tranny rebuild)

For option 2 I already have the head and ECU. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Thanks for your opinions guys, it will help me out a TON.

 

this is just an opinion thread..... i didnt think it belonged here.

 

Come on guys, 30 reads and only one reply without any input!? If it doesn't belong in this forum where might you like to see it LocOBanAna? (Didn't mean to sound like an *** there lol) My real thoughts here are should I rebuild and boost just the F or should I use the H23 head and boost with that and a full rebuild?

 

lets make you answer your own question

whats it used for? do you depend on this car as a DD?

 

Partial DD but I also have a 97 Wrangler that I use as a DD too. They are both my fun cars and DD as well. My Accord is my "sporty" car and my Jeep is my offroad toy and summer cruiser. Both projects, both DD but I want a fast car...my Accord.
