USDM parts that will fit the JDM 3g Accord/ 2g Prelude B20A

[carotman]

Well, I see alot of people asking where to get that part and that part and another part from local USDM cars when rebuilding their B20A.

That list is far from complete. I do have more I need to post (have it written somewhere)
Feel free to submit the parts you find.

B20a Timing Belt (Gates P/N-T188)

[bullard123]

A20A3 transmission/ B18a bellhousing

[2oodoor]

A20A3 transmission/ B18a bellhousing

b18a bellhousing is not USDM, however the A20 tranny is

B20a Timing Belt (Gates P/N-T188)

Also Gates T-249

[2ndGenGuy]

The water pipe o-ring for the B20A is the same as the A20 o-ring.

[OldSchool86]

D16(s20) speed sensor will fit the b20a and the a20a trans. so if you want to run an electric speedo it will work.
let me rephrase...

the speed sensor out of the b20a auto trans fits and works in the d16(s20) trans...so...it should be the same vice-versa.

[Ichiban]

I noticed the rear main seal interchanges with the B20A5. Does anyone know about the front main, or the rear main seal retainer gasket?

[AccordB20A]

i thought the b20a and b20a5 were pretty much the same apart from having different bolt up patterns on the head bellhousing and engine mounts

[2ndGenGuy]

They share crankshafts, so I imagine that the crank seals would interchange. Not sure about the retainer gasket though.

[carotman]

yeah, the main seals are the same. I changed mine with a B20A5 seal.

[Ichiban]

yeah, the main seals are the same. I changed mine with a B20A5 seal.

Was the rear main retainer gasket the same though?

[carotman]

Err, diagram please?

[Ichiban]

I'm starting to believe that the rear main retainer block doesn't actually have a gasket, it's just sealed with black RTV, in which case, yes, it interchanges quite fine.

[2oodoor]

oil pump same??

[carotman]

The oil pump housing is different.

1st gen B20A (86-89 Accord and 86-87 Prelude):

However, all the internal parts can be cross referenced from other Honda engines.

This means that if you can' get a "new pump" you can always rebuild it if the housing is in good condition

You can search for USDM part numbers there:

You'll see that everything is available from Honda un North America to rebuild your oil pump.

[toxicshock]

does anyone know if the head off the b20a out of the 2g prelude will fit on a b20a5 block

[89B20ALUDE]

They share crankshafts, so I imagine that the crank seals would interchange. Not sure about the retainer gasket though.

I just put a jdmB20a in my 89 prelude and from what I can tell everything was comparable except for the clutch.

[89B20ALUDE]

i thought the b20a and b20a5 were pretty much the same apart from having different bolt up patterns on the head bellhousing and engine mounts

The b20a and b20a5 are exactly alike except for the came and clutch. The C/R is slightly higher also

[89B20ALUDE]

I'm looking for performance parts for my b20a any ideas

[bullard123]

What about the a20 and b20a alternators? I know i have a b20a one. Anyone know if they are the same?

[2ndGenGuy]

I don't know if it bolts 100% directly, but I was able to make my ES alternator bolt on to the B20A. I think I swapped the adjuster bracket, or ground the bracket slightly or something like that. The mount on the engine is the same though. I mean it was super super easy.

Ok cool. I think I remember them being the same. I found the part nuumber U.S. alternator but couldn't find the part# for the B20A alternator. Hopefully Carotman will check in soon to confirm. Thanks for the info

[AccordB20A]

i rememberer the a20 alt having a different pulley?

[2ndGenGuy]

Hmm yeah I can't remember if I swapped my crank pulley, or if I swapped the alternator pulley...

[carotman]

The housing is different. They might be able to fit with pulley/bracket modifications.

If you have a bad alternator, you can get it rebuilt with local parts and keep your current housing.

[bullard123]

Looks like the oil pan gasket is specific to the B20A only. I tried a B20A5 one and one from the A20A3 and neither work. They were both too big
