best swap for you to go... is everything prelude... oh wait a sec... you drive a 99 ??? hmm i wonder if thats compatible... k lemme get back to you....
but ideally if you want madd power... you drop a 450 engine block and convert to a RWD... now thats the way to go... |

Drop an H22A in there. It will cost you some serious $$$, but it is a good platform to build from.

It depends if you wnat to keep it N/A or you wanna go F/I.
If N/A, then fo with F22. If F/I, then F23.

Hey if its an F23 Shouldnt it be the same as F22? And the f22 has same mounting positions for H22 (which is honda Prelude engine)
I wouldnt do a V6 Swap in there since u cant have a manual :p |

I want to go mad fast. I want to put a 2.6l rb26dett engine and convert it to awd and rebuild the engine and drop in an HKS ball bearing turbo. You people think this will work or i'll have to take out the firewall for it? If it don't work I'll just do the H22 swap.Thanks for the info you gave me though.

Don't know about the firewall, but it can be done. If my supplier still has it, I can get a SR20DET AWD setup, complete. If you are interested. It will cost some serious cash to do the conversion though. I am talking thousands in labor. You would be better of buying an H22 and turboing it for less.

Thanks for the help people, but how much can this cash and labor would estimate too?

I'm talking about the SR26DET motor with AWD. MY nick is Air Civic because i drive a bagged civic for show and my girl drives a 1999 accord lx and I want more power out the car and make it different from all other accords.

That Sr20DET is going to cost you hella money. I would just stick to a h22.
