Didn't you just rebuild your H23??

I think your best bet is to remove the valve cover and see what's going on in there. See if the oil is all grimey. That should tell how the previous owner treated it.

Good luck. I am swapping in my H22 soon too.

I would never buy a motor/car without a compression test done first and foremost.
