Hello everyone, I just had a f22 crate engine installed in my 90 accord EX, upon picking up the car i noticed a vibration upon cold start! I thought it was weird but I drove it home to try it out. I feel that a engine with 35,000 should be smoother than an engine with 215,000 but its not. I think they bent the crank pully for the belts, it looks like its not spinning true. my question is do you think this would cause a vibration from 1500 to 3000 rpm? The idle is smooth! Im trying to figure out how im going to get them to fix it, im very disappointed and now out about $1500. how should I approach the installer?

Hello? I was also wondering about converting to rear disc brakes. Ive seen my model of car but a newer year with the rear discs. could someone tell me what parts i need for the swap? I have a 1990 Accord EX 5spd coupe.

 

maybe you have bad engine mounts

 

I thought about that too, Ill have the dude look at it! Thank you!

 

and to answer your brake conversion i believe there is a write up in the accord FAQ forum. Its a pretty basic conversion.

 

maybe the counter balance shafts are out of time

 

well $335.00 later, my distributer was toasty. It was in fact causing the rpm vibration around 2500rpm! Thank you for all of the reply's I'll post some pic's of my accord by the end of the week! $1450. f22 35,000 mile crate installed.
