You are better off building an H22 or H23vtec.

For the amount of power you are comparing the H motors still have more torque and are equal to the K motors, the difference may be in discplacement, but the cost to get a K series in the the Prelude is not worth the cost.

You already have a good motor to start off with that plugs right in without having to buy expensive mounts to get a motor in.

Don't get hooked on the hype of the K motors, there good in the chassis they fit in and came in but not the Prelude.

If its for unique factor then that is your choice.

Here is a video of an H22 boosted in a 3rd gen lude(88-91)at that time making only 480whp and 370tq. It now makes 610whp I forget what torque, but I rode in this lude and it kills street bikes.

DAmn skippy!!! I stick with my Lude and its beast-*** motor because ***** always wanted to do ANYTHING H22 before the K swap craze...H motors still has my love and following because its a motor to be reckoned with it done properly. I love my Crx and its underdog status with a SINGLE SLAMMER done up right...but then again IM OLSKOOL...minus the BODYKITS and FLASHING underLIGHTS!!!!

^lol

the real reason the sky is blue is due to light scattering in the atmosphere, and the fact that blue light has a much smaller wavelength and therefore gets scattered much more than the other colors, making it more visible to color seeign animals.

A better question is why are h23vtec vavlecovers blue?
