Motor Swap

ok im selling my 93 prelude to a friend and the engine is fucked and mine was a h23a well he got an h22 for 350 bux but he was told its non vtech well he wants to know if it will need new motor mounts or a transmission and if the old exhaust will link up also...i think it will myself but he wanted to know and i figured a bunch of ppl would hit me back and answer me

really hope u guys can help

umm... there is no h22 non vtec. it could be a f22, the base S model engine.

so will all the stuff link up though?

will the f22 be able to link up with the tranny off the dead h23 i have in it now and the motor mounts and the original exhaust?....cuz he is getting an f22 really cheap and all...he hasnt baught the engine yet though so he just making sure....PLEASE help :-d thanx in advance

how many miles is on the f22? i doubt thats a great price for it, might as well go to a junk yard and strip an old accord of its f22, itll be stronger too since its built of steel, and shoudl still bolt right in, and with around 50k miles you can proly get for about 100, i think

thanx for the advise....anyways.... its low mileage on the f22....so an f22 will bolt on to a h23 tranny and exhaust?

dont ask me

rebuild the h23. performance internals and supercharger. if u can afford it

im not doing anything but selling it.....damn ppl.....i was hoping to get feedback from an experienced poster and someone who knows whats up but oh well.....will the f22 fit in it and hook up to the shit that i asked?

*Bump* :repost: :1zhelp:

KidBlizzard: The f22 will bolt up to the transmission and your friend will not need new motor mounts. The f22 is basically a destroked h22 so it is all pretty much the same components. The exhaust linkage I am not so sure about but I am thinking that it should bolt right up. Maybe one of the more experienced members can help....

thanx man...that helped me out a good bit....

Glad to help

i just wanted to point out the f22 is NOT a destroked h22, they're both 2.2 liters, so how could one be destroked from the other? You must be mistaking it for the f20b. The real difference is:

f22 = sohc non vtec
h22 = dohc vtec

But you are correct, the f22 tranny will bolt up, and he will not need new mounts.

As far as i know, the exhaust will not readily bolt on, but with simple and minor modification from a local muffler shop, it should be cheap to get it to get it chopped and/or extended so it can fit correctly.

Hope this helped, and good luck.
