I have a 92 Jdm h22a that I put in my 90 accord upon driven it, I felt a lack of power so I did a compression test and come to find out the compression was all out of whack Number one was like at 160 and number 4 was at 270 so I ordered a headgasket but it could be bent valves to so I have a usdm 98 h22a4 head at home. I was wondering if the valves are bent can I just swap the heads. I dont think its my ring cause the compression test was done 4months ago and today it is still the exact same. and how can I check for engine codes with a p13 ecu in a accord

 

yes you can just swap the head, our prelude modorator Joel satan_srv was using a h22a head on a h22a4 block, so the heads can be swapped so a h22a4 head will work on the h22a block, no problem at all

 

My '93 USDM OBD_1 H22A1 head works fine on my '97 JDM OBD-2 H22A Type-S block.

so would it be a direct bolt-on process?

 

In my accord (5th gen) you have to jump the connector with a paper clip or a wire. Its under the glove box ,i thinks its blue or orange. Then it will flash the codes.

 

what in the flying hell did that have to do with a usdm head on a jdm block? lol

WTF??!??!?!?!??!?!?!??!

 

bolt up? yes it is bolt up. Everything is bolt up in my engine bay , no JB Weld anywhere. But yes it is a direct run-of-the-mill project. Nothing fancy or out of the ordinary.

you would need a special JDM manual written in JDM to make that work though.
