Hello guys i was wondering if anyone could tell me a good swap for a 89 accord ex this car has a 2.0 carb motor in it now and is gutless,the body is excellent so it would be worth a swap,whats fairly easy and not to expensive to swap in i want something from either a honda or an accura.:)

welcome to the board. please read and use search button before you ask any questions.

you can drop JDM B20A from 3geez in japan. it will drop without any problem.

you can also drop B16, B18 and B20 engines with some additional cost for engine mounts, axels, and ECU wirring kit.

It can get expensive but the motor will run $1000-$1500 depending on where you are and what you find. The mounts and hardware will run a min of $1000 for the minimal stuff mounts and axles. But some people can find a nice complete swap cheaper than others so if you can pull that off you will be in good shape and sometimes people sell the mounts on the board which there were some up recently.
