I've seen PReludes with the A18 motor in em with the dual carb setup would this be a pheazeable thing to put on a A20?

not really feasable... I think the Accord 2bbl keihin is better then the ludes Dual Keihins...
Besides that the manifoldon the prelude has different head ports.

You would have to use the A18 head to be able to use those carbs and the intake manifold. I have toyed with those before and I am not impressed with them.

What about the A18 Cylinder Head, A18 Intake Manifold & Adapter for Dual Webers then????

you might as well just get a B18 manifold and mod that to fit at the right angle and moutn holes and use the webers on that, not worth swapping the head.

actually it is worth it. with A18 head and A20 block you will increase the compression ratio. there is a guy in UK that did that.

ok, let me rephrase, how much will the C.R. rise with the A18 head on a A20 block?

no u must have the a18 head bored to a20 specs in teh combustion chambers. ask rjudgey, he did it was blowing headgasgets due to to mcuh compression. and the stock daul keihns are not tunable and are pretty much shit.
