Default Timing belt snapped, destroyed my valves...

Ok, my F22 head is destroyed and they say something maybe have to happened to one of the pistons or rings. I think this is a good opportunity to upgrade. What are my options from here? Can I put an H-series head on now? Or should I totally swap the whole engine and tranny out?

You can rebuild the F22, swap on an H-series head, or do a full swap.

The choice is yours; consider the cost, reliability, and what you want out of the car first.

Well... I was already thinking about swapping the engine out so I guess just a full swap then? I guess I'll just start scraping cash together and go to hmotorsonline

Hey, since i need a new bumper and hood also should I try and buy a whole JDM front clip and just get all the stuff at once?

While the front clip will not cost you too much more than just a full swap, I am not sure that they for sure that it will come w/ the hood.

Hmm. Are RHD clips onto a US car legal and where can i buy one?

Also, is that considerably more work to install?

We can help you out with your F22 if you wish. Not that far of a drive. We have a head and pistons/rods - You can also check out the hood if you wish.

are you talking about cutting/welding the RHD clip onto a USDM car? .... i would say DONT DO IT. just use the clip for spare parts, thats what i did.
