mike5327 Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I have a 98 accord and I was wondering which engine would be easier to swap in, the H22a from a 97 or up prelude or an f20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeafBoy Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 who am i to say anything cause im noob, but from what i read i would go with a H22 engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 H22 and high compression pistons if you want torque down low or the F20 and cams if you want power up high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike5327 Posted January 27, 2004 Author Share Posted January 27, 2004 Which one would be less work to swap in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecollins2 Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Less work? F20 Bigger payoff: (in my opinion) H22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 They are both the same to swap in. The only difference is engine internals and the valve cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike5327 Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Does the H22a use factory mounts on my 98 accord because I have heard many different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 No, you need a mount kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike5327 Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 So all I need to do is buy a mount kit and an OBD1 to OBD2 harness and Im set? Is it an easy install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike5327 Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Is there any engine that will use my factory mounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carta79 Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 I'd look into doing a whole lot of research if I were you. Join up with Hondaswap.com and go through some swap articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike5327 Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 Its different for a 98 accord. That article is for a 96 accord, thats why that swap is so easy. The H22a does not use the 98 accord factory mounts. I just want to know what the easiest swap for me would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

optional187 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 Less work? F20 Bigger payoff: (in my opinion) H22 They are both the same to swap in. The only difference is engine internals and the valve cover. No, you need a mount kit. what else do you want to know? ask directly (number them if you want) and i'm sure ssr can supply you with the answers you're looking for.

..SSR.. Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 1. Any swap won't be easy. 2. There is no easiest swap, like I said, both engines are exactly the same other than internals and valve cover. 3. No, it doesn't use stock mounts. 4. www.doafrackingsearch.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
