Default Vtec Head

I was planning on putting a vtec head from the ex accord onto my f22b2 block which is the stock 96 lx accord engine. I was wondering what was needed other than the head itself? ecu? timing belt? any special wiring? thanx in advance everybody.

it all depends on what he wants to do further down the road. these nothing wrong with putting the Vtec head on the Lx block. Cheapp 15 horses i think. Plus while the head is off he could massage it alittle.

you need harness or just make your lx harness into an ex harness:
you need a vtec ecu and the head


gimpy's swap was a vtec head ona f22a block i am pretty sure,
he has a fourth gen and wanted to use the f22b to help his goals in boost

even though i think that drag makes a kit for the f22a?
