Default Engine Swap Questions

I own a 1995 del sol s with a b18b1 swap in it...the swap is on stock b18 motor mounts...my buddy owns a 1995 prelude with an h22a1 in it...he is selling his car and we were wondering if it's possible to swap the engines around...mine into his and vise versa...is this possible and if it is can we do it without spending any money...all opinions will help

del sol you can use the civic H22 mounts. Dont take my word for it though, go to the delsol section and get more info

And putting a del sol motor into a prelude is like sticking a gerbal in a ball, and telling it to power a big rig

I personally have never seen a B series in a 4th gen prelude. Not saying it isn't possible, but way ton of work needed to succeed, and money. Now the h22 into the del sol, yes, still will need a mount set, though, which means money.

With any budget anything is possible.

In the realm of reality though, any H-series can go in, any F-series can go in (excluding the F20 and F22 from the S2000), and now there are mounts for any K-series block.

Do not put a B18 in a Prelude. It will cost you a lot of $$$ and the car will suck.

That is just wrong. That person should be informed or else it will come right back to the person who knows they intentionally did someone dirty.
