so my timing belt snapped on my 1994 Honda Accord LX 4 Cyl 2.2L manuel transmission and damaged the head. i heard im better off just replacing the motor because it cost just about the same to change the head, so im liking the idea. i want to swap the motor but i dont want another stock motor even if it cost more. i want something a bit better bigger, faster, stronger, or just anything diffrent. my problem is i dont know were to start looking for a motor or transmission, or what to look for. if someone can tell me what i can put in my car, give me ideas or were i can find something,or just any info that would help it would be much appreciated, thanks

 

Well if it didn't throw a valve through the pistons you could replace the cylinder head ,hopefully with valvetrain ,HG, and timing belt which in theory would be cheaper if you were doing it on your own, but if you're going to have a shop do it I would go with the swap. Thats just my 2 cents Gl

 

thanks. well for sure i wont have shop do something i can do myself, ive done a swap on my 89 hatchback it was pretty eazy. just time comsuming. so i know i can do it again, as for the head i know i cant, but my neighbor said he could for 500, parts included.id wrather do the swap, my car has a f22a1 do you know of something else i can use to replace it with

 

You go with a F22B DOHC, H23A, or a JDM H22A. All three of these engines are alot stronger than your F22A in stock form. If you want to go all out in performance and wanted to stay NA, go with an H22A(200hp at the crank); otherwise, go with a F22B DOHC and turbo that b!tch.

ill probly just stick to the f22 if thats the cheapest. i been searching everywere online and finding motors as low *** 499 on jdmenginedepot, but been seeing reviews saying that jdm site and others are scams, do u know of a good repritable source i can find 1 cheap.
