Hey everyone i got a accord project iam doing and iam new to the accord tuning setups so all help and imput will be nice. iam going to rebuild my f22a and put a h22vtec head on it. but it will take alot of time and money for that build. so i got a few F20A DOHC engines at my shop and i want to know what is needed to make it run in my accord i know everything bolts up just got to rewire somethin on the coil and dist. just let me know guys thanks


ill get pics of the car up soon i just got a 91 accord wagon that is very clean and it was only $150 with a bad rod bearing.

Ok so i just stayed with the F20a swap and its all done working like a champ except for my cracked exhaust but a dc sports will fix that. everything was bolt on the only 2 things you have to do is 1.change the dist unless you buy a F20 that has the internal coil than its all plug and play.if you dont tho i belive a 91 prelude dist will work. and 2nd you will have to use the ps bracket that comes with the F20. also on most JDM engines they come with a oil cooler between the block and oil filter.you can leave it on like i did. or take it off but than you will have to change the water pipe and plug a hole thats in the block. and the same ecu works fine just adjust the idle skrew on the tb to up the rpm a bit. ive got some pics and vid ill post up in a few min. any questions just ask.

Hey Man where abouts are you.
I been searching everywhere for parts for a f20A dohc engine .
I have one in my 92 prelude and CANNOT find one for parts anyhere. I snapped a rod and dinged up a piston wen the rod broke.
Think u could part one of ur f20s out for a piston and rod? or a hole motor
let me know.
and as far as the h23 head im pretty sure the h23 head goes on that block no problem. I have a f22b1 sohc 97 accord engine now but it doesnt wire up to the lude.
Im about to put the f20 head on the f22b1 but i seen alot of bad info on here about that.
so if u got parts let me know.

Just curious as to what transmission you are using? I have a prelude with a f20a in it and I believe it has an h22/23 trans behind it now but the syncros are going out on me. So I'm trying to find a diff trans to put in it's place. I like the ratio mine has but I'm up for anything at this point. Any suggestions?
