What would fit?

[HondaAdict]

I was wondering what engine would fit in a 1992 Honda Accord EX?

Hi!

Umm, is this a trick question??

If not, which engine are you refering to??

P.S. h22 and h23 will fit.

[azn_nite_ryder]

yea the best engine would be an h22 or an h23... the best tho is to get an H22 with a H23 head.... MMmm can you say 2.3L VTEC... thats what im looking into rite now.... the new mod for 2002...:yes: ;) :yes:

Dude at Speed and Truck World in Miami told me he'd put a stick shift Prelude engine in my 4th gen accord for $6000. I think that would be a nice way to go. i don't know bout all that h22 and h23 stuff, I don't even know what those are, but they know what they're talkin bout

H22 Vtec prelude engine
H23 Non-Vtec prelude engine

Oh bet it up...I figured it was somethin like that. Makes sense. Yeah I'd go with the h22 then

I'd go with either an H22 or H23+turbo

Azn, did you mean an H23 with an H22 head? Or maybe I have it backwards :confused:

[urbanlegend21]

no your right h23 block with h22 head

a swap for $6000 is a little expensive

Ok cool :P

I was thinking that was way to expensive also. Hunt around for a better deal.

oops.. yes that is what i meant to say... hheheeh.. i guess it would help if i looked at what i type and tey to kep my eyes open in class!!!!
but yes H23 with H22 head... MMMmmmmm 2.3L VTEC!!!!

H23VTEC eh? good luck with the swap....not worth the trouble imo but, good luck :P

[azn_nite_ryder]

the only problem i had was finding the H22 head...
but now that i have found it....:yes:

yep abd the bores for the 3 engines are the same 3.43 in. the only difference will be the stroke:

Stroke
H22-3.57in
H23-3.74in

So i guess no porting is necesary for that kind of swap.

BTW www.jdm1.com has the entire swap: engine, tranny, axles and ecu for $2300 for h22. no prices for h23 yet.

iS is already in?

[HondaAdict]

What about a Integera Type R engine?

[azn_nite_ryder]

nah not in yet... in soo lazy... the car cant come out till march... so till then i can only touch it.... ahhhhh

and you could theoretically put a type r engine in there but theres 2 problems with that.. first off... its gonna be damn expensive to buy one let alone the time to put one in cuz the mounts are not the same.... the second big problem is that you will have less in the car with the type R... you have to remember that the accords are heavy to sin and the amount of torwue on the engine will barely pull a 3000lbs compared to a 1900lbs civic/integ.....

besides.... you could buy an H22 with install for about the same price for just the type R engine......

THe best engine to pull it would be the H22 and the cost wise too... its a perfect fitting....hope that clears things up for ya!!:yes:
