Default f20a swap

I am looking for info on what it is going to take to put the f20a in to my 91 accord. Its supposed to be direct swap but they never are. I am also looking for a repair manual for this motor.

probably pretty close to a direct swap...

i just hope you don't like torque...your car will probably be slower after the swap, just fyi

im parting out the H22 in my car, its out of a 90 accord LX, i have the Head(everything), tranny, ECU, and the headed and A-pipe(custom made to fit a 90-93 accord), and i also have custom made drive axel for the passenger side(accord with prelude inner). i through a rod through my block and it just so happens i am the luckiest son of a bitch alive cause i have no bent valves. ill let it go for $1200+shipping for everything, its a direct swap into your car, all you need is a block.

ya and with that you only get engine, you dont get a tranny or an ecu or the custom made A-pipe for a 90-93 accord or the custome passenger side drive axel. and plus with no mods i ran a 14.7@94mph with my motor so i would say its a good motor. hmmm......weird how that works

If your rod went through the block, surely anyone buying your motor needs a new rod? That piston is also probably damaged. The crank might even be tweaked?

ok your a moron im sorry, i said what im selling doesnt come with a block, how many people have rods and pistons in their head tranny or ECU, not me, the block is dead you can repair it but unless you do it yourself it would cost more than its worth, the valves on the head didnt get touched at all so they are perfect, so everything you need for a H22A swap ********WITHOUT THE BLOCK****** i will sell the kid for $1200, jesus i didnt know i was typing in a differenbt language cause i said this like 1000 times ********NO BLOCK FOR ANYONE WHO MISSED THIS*******

i dont think around 1200 is cheap. i think he needs a normal engine to get him running like he said.. for daily driver
