Alright I was just browsing through some JDM-USDM engine sites and I came across where you can buy just the H22a "longblock."

<u>H22a Longblock Includes:</u>

- Motor
- Intake Manifold
- Exhaust Manifold
- Injectors
- Fuel Rail
- Throttle body
- Distributor

<u>Full H22a Swap Includes:</u>

- Motor
- Hydrolic Tranny
- ECU (P13)
- Axles
- Shifter Cables
- Shifter Assembly
- Stock Motor Mounts
- Engine Harness
- All Sensors Needed
- LSD Tranny (Optional +$300)


From what I can get out of comparing, all that is lacking with the longblock is the ECU, axles, motor mounts, harness, and transmission.

I know the stock Accord axles should work, along with the transmission.

For someone wanting a swap soon, would buying the longblock using the stock axles/transmission be fine until funds allowed for the other stuff?

Or are there a lot of other variables that I am not considering?

Thanks in advance.

you need the driver side prelude mount, and the p13 ecu

Thanks for the replay.

What does an engine harness usually run for?

Same for the prelude mount, and I believe I know what I'd be looking at on the ECU.

 

You need to resuse the Accord harness for the chassis, the Prelude one doesnt work. I know HMO will throw in an ECU and drivers side mount for an extra $300 usually.

 

yea use the accord harness.

also u do have to have the prelude drivers side mount and we had to slot the holes for the frount mount a little but it works.. i would wait till u have all the money at once. its a pain in the *** to pull the tranny while the motor is in there. take your time and do things right the first time.
peace..

 

Yeah I feel you on the do it right the first time, but patience is not on my side.

That and the main reason I'm considering this is b/c I'm well past overdue for my 90k tune-up and rather than spend all the money all that, I can just put in a new engine like I've been wanting to do.

Ok... back to the engine.... when you guys say harness, in what extreme are you meaning? Like define what the harness does b/c it seems as if there are many different types, like if the longblock were an OBDI, and since I have an OBDII then I'd need an OBDI wiring harness. I just don't know how many harnesses are necessary, etc.

I think that's it for now, I'll post questions as they come, thanks for the input thusfar though, really it's greatly appreciated.

 

you need the actual engine harness its the full harness thats holds bout 20-25 sensor thats plug into almost every part of the tranny and engine.
the obd2-1 harness which i am sure you know i ll help you get
will plug into the ecu and allow you run obd1 thats a totally different harenss thast bout I--------I this big and the engine one is I=======================I that big.. lol

90k i have 267,000 on my f22a with the factory clutch still

 

ok, i guess i'm stupid when it comes to jap cars. I'm still learning on them. what's the diff between a standard h22 and a long block h22? i'm seeing long blocks pop up places and they are same displacement so i can't figure out what exactly a long block is. thanks for the help.
also, fbiguy007, what accord and f22 do you have?

 

Long blocks are just the engine minus the tranny/axles/ecu. Same engine.

 

thanks for the help. that would explain why the prices are less.
