I have a 1996 Honda Accord Dx with and F22B2 engine in it. I am looking to swap out the head with either a F22A7 (Europe) head, F22Z2 (Europe) head, or a F22B (Japan) head to increase my HP and torque. Those engines are foreign (I live in the U.S.) though and I can't find a seller who has just the heads. Can anyone help? I prefer to get a used one just because a new head is so expensive but if new is all there is then I will shell out the cash. Also if anyone knows of another head I can use to get +150HP and have +145 lb ft torque power that will fit on an F22 block (without having to bore it out) would you please comment? Thanks.

Anyways, people put H22a heads on F22 blocks fairly often. They consider it a Frankenstein G22 motor.

 

Oh sorry, I thought I was just in the general forum for my year Accord. I've seen a few posts for the G Hybrid motors but my only issue is I don't have the kind of money (or the time since I only have one car to get to work with. If I can just swap heads I could get it done during the weekend) it would take to have the block bored (F22B2 engine has a 85mm bore, H22 has a 87 and the stroke is smaller so I would lose horsepower. Right?).

 

Yes. Not as strong as a stock H22. You'll need to put quite a bit of money into that setup to be fast cause stock pistons are 8.8:1 on the F22 block.
