then no one can answer some came 55mm and some came 50 mm mains

 

so i guess just measure the mains?

 

could you not figure it out from the serial number underneath the h22a tag. i don't know i've never tried? just wondering to try to help this guy out, ripping a motor apart to measure mains seems a bit much

 

Any H22a1 (93-96) crank will work in a H22a. A USDM crank from a 97 H22a4 will also work.

Apart from the Type-S and EuroR, all the jdm longblocks imported have been/are the obd1/closed-deck/50mm engine.

 

what would i look at under the h22 tag?

Really?! The JDM black tops are all closed regardless of year? I've only seen blue and red top H motors (which were all open). It was easy to think the rest of the regulars of that era were the same. I can't find much in searching or the FAQ....except the part that just plain says "H22A = closed deck", but I always thought that was a small oversight.

Nah, the H22a's are not all closed, but all the longblocks imported to the US are 91-96. You won't find a single obd2/open-deck regular (non Type-S/EuroR) JDM H22 in the states.

 

Ah, so they do change open/closed by year then. It's just that all the imports are closed...wierd. LOL

Why is that btw? Just curious

 

Absolutely no idea.

 

wait i thought the years included were 98 and before with the 55MM mains and the 99-01 were 60. cuz 99's when everything was updated right?

 

93-97= 50mm
98+= 55mm

Also some very early 1998 Preludes still had leftover '97 blocks.

 

i was told.too just ckeck the numbers stamped on the crank.and on the block when you remove the oil pan.

last time i checked, the main journal dimension also dealt with the crankshaft.

jdm, closed deck, etc. do not matter...it's the crank's main journal dimension that control its compatibility.
