F22A FTW.

Thats what I would do and load it up with a bunch of Bisi parts. BTW what chassis is this in??

built an f23a7 for my brother, just for kicks. dc5r pistons. stock rods. balance shaft delete. s2000 crank damper. cleaned the head and laped the valves back in. AEM cam gear. vented the vc and ported the intake man. no EGR. calculator says 11.7:1.

then thru it in a 94 4dr accord in front of an auto trans.. lol. some ebay header that i cut down and made fit snug. full 2.5 back. no cat. runs best on 110 but we retard the timing and it runs on 93 daily.

need to swap to 5sp. cant tune an auto ecu and there is alot left in there. but hey, its fun. not trying to be fast. building an f22 for boost now..

so yea.. its possible.


if you think its possible... just build it.. the least you will get is an answer.

1. it is possible.
2.stay around 12:1 to run pump gas.
3. you can use the rsx-s pistons. compression will be ~12.3:1 with the f23 head.
4. Use another head. f22a or h22.
5.It's not an investment, it's a hobby.
6.f23 with rsx-s pistons, h22 head, decent header and you should be ~230whp.

you seriously haven't even tried searching yourself yet...


go to search

click advanced search

select thread titles only instead of posts

type in "f23" how simple!!! you don't even have to use quotation marks! wow.

where you select the forum you want it to search, try selecting "All Motor" makes perfect sense hey?! (if you were lookin to do a turbo setup, maybe try selecting "Forced Induction"...you can even shift click and select both! holy ****)

you're doin great i know this is hard and extremely counter-intuitive...

NOW, click the final search now button at the bottom.


VOILA!!!! hordes of information! i swear it's magic

good day

What's funny is that i followed those exact directions (the ones i wrote out so kindly fo you) and was provided with plenty of links...in fact there were even build threads mentioning k-series pistons...IN THE TITLE!!!!

and i taught you how to search...so you should be doubly thankful.

You're welcome, and you're welcome again.

F22A head flows very well. I can wait to get my 90mm f22 in my car later this year.
