Finally getting a little further along in my daily driven 9'6 CD5. Was looking at what I'd like to start working on next, as well as future possible modifications.
First off brakes, thinking about a R-O-H conversion. After doing so what brake rotors are available, in other words what 'stock' brake rotors should I shop for when looking for aftermarket cross-drilled/slotted and bigger brakes? Think I read 98-002 accord rotors work as well as 99-03 Acura CL rotors?
Will a F23 IM bolt almost directly to a F22B1 head? And if not how much modification and/or what modifications would have to be done.
Will a F23 Head bolt up w/o modifications to a F22B1 block? And if so will have to change anything as far as ECM etc?

in the process of putting f23a into a 97 ex coupe that had a f22b1. so far it looks like im going to be using the f22 manifold because the f23a isnt compatible with the 3 cables on my car, 1 4 the tranny 1 for the cruise control, and 1 for the throttle. will it bolt up? it looks like it but i still dont know what im gasket to use. pretty sure it can be done but not woth it for me to lose my cruise control for a f23 im thats been sitting for several months. u will need to swap certain parts from the f22 to make it work. as for the head compatibility i have no idea. any usefull info here would help me aswell.

Cruise control not a problem for me, lost it when I did my 5spd swap. So as far as I can imagine, everything is the same, I would just have to swap certain sensors like IACV etc.? I would assume both would be almost identical to my setup, both OBD2, and I think I've read the head as far as valving is exactly the same. The extra .1 liter comes from 1mm larger bore and 2mm larger stroke in the F23.
