Generally speaking, b series trannies have less problems revving high, 9, 10, 11, is not unheard of. Ive never heard of an H revving that high and the tranny not complaining alot.

This would be a big break through.

This mean we'd be able to use the same shift linkage as the B series? Instead of the cable system on the Prelude?

in my experience all manual honda trannys have weak synchros. These trannys were never designed to be put behind the abuse that we put them through.

I think it in intended for the use of the H22 in civics. So that all they have to buy in the motor mounts. It would be nice to have a B tranny in a prelude but i think that would be motor trouble than it worth.

My H22 2nd gear synchro is shot. I wasn't planning on changing it until I bought a FD.
