yes all accord and prelude engines and trannies are interchangeable. however, the f22 tranny is geared way to long for such a gutless 4 cylinder. you'll fall out of vtec between shifts and the car won't be nearly as fast. my advice: save up for an lsd tranny. preferably jdm with the longer 5th gear (m2b4?)

u can find all this info btw in other threads if u search.

You'll need a VTEC ECU, preferably a P13 at least. Unless you get a chipped/tuned ECU with a H22 Base Map.

Along with all the required wiring.
