On a european accord (i dont think the chassis exists in the US) can you swap a H22? Its current motor is a F22B5. Is it possible to put a vtec head on this motor or will the bottom end be to weak?

Thanks in advance

 

you can swap the h22 in, it uses all the accord mounts in 90-93 accord, one prelude mount for 94-97s. not sure about the head swap, most frankenstein's ive seen have died after not too long... but these were h23 block w/ h22 head. ive never seen the f22b5... anypics?

i can get pics but you won't notice a difference.

the f22b5 is PROBABLY the same as the f22b4 in the US. on my prelude i have a H22A5 and it has the same internals as the H22A4. it seems that the last number is upped one for the eurpean specs.
