BTW, I found those pictures on the net, I don't know anything about the car nor about it's owners.

Enjoy!

I like carbs but that b20a looks so nice in that engine bay...

Isn't there pics of a carb b20a, I think someone had them on AF, or maybe I'm just dreaming.

The car is owned by a mechanic for Accuformance is East Point, GA, just south of Atlanta. They got the engine and tranny by chance as part of a shipment from SAP in Europe. Yes, it does run, and runs well, the cam gears are from a 90 Accord so I'm told by him. He said he would be able to do another swap if someone would come up with the money to do it, and would complete it. He can get the engines and 5 speed trannies. I don't know about the price. He said he would also do 5 speed conversions for A20's.
His labor rate is not cheap, but his work is good.

Yes, I took the pics. They are from the 250 or so I took at the NOPI Nationals in Sept of last year. Like the rest Carot? :D

Hehe I want one. I really need to get info on that.

The wiring harness is the same.

Yes it is. I swear up and down the intake on that car is the stock A20 one. If I remember right, he said he had to run a couple of extra wires because he used a Prelude ECU due to the DOHC, but that was it.

The swap cannot be that hard. I just worry about tranny parts. It is that worry that has kept me from going to 20 miles down to see him, leaving my car there for a month, and coming back with a B20 of my own.

In the FAQ, it says there were some with carbs instead of EFI, but I think the one I saw was a b18a not the b20a, come to think of it.

Check the JDM B18A post The picture is smaller but the engine looks the same except for the 2 carbs

From looking around 86/87 style B20A's are much easier to come by but there are a lot of automatics. I am trying to find a Black top already mated with the 5spd so i dont have to mess with the flywheel and stuff.

Ummmm.... that's how all front wheel drive cars launch off the line. Don't forget, you may have AWD, but that's a 70/30 setup, so it's gonna launch like a FWD off the line unless you change ur ratio to like a 50/50 or 40/60.

umm, no. i am pretty sure an AWD car, at least any i have driven will not launch anything like a FWD car...

fwd cars get wheelspin before they pop up like that. :)

No, it may LOOK like a normal launch, but it is NOTHING like it. I do not know my drivetrain ratio off the top of my head, and while that does play a big role in the launch, regardless the rear wheels are pushing the car, and the fronts are clawing for traction. Just for arguments sake, go hop in the hatch, rev to 5,500, load the clutch until you fell the car JUST wanting to pull forward, MASH the throtle and dump the clutch at the same time. Let me know how eventfull that is.



kthnxbye :wave:


Oh yeah, in the two pics I posted, especialy the 2nd., the front end is comming off the ground. Thats not the rear end sinking due to the launch, its the front rising....


BTW, this isn't a flame, don't wan't anyone (Mark) to take it as one...

markmdz89hatch

no flaming intentions felt at all... ...you guys do bring up a good argument, and 88lxi, ur right... the AWD launch is certainly not the same as FWD, but I was thinking more about the first 1/2 sec. after you dump the clutch, when the front wheels get 1st grab, it's not until after the car is in motion that the rear wheels are actually effective enough in "pushing" the car, but yeah, that push is what gives the AWD the edge over the competion. Hey, check out www.pruvenperformance.com for a little DSM eye candy. That's a local shop around here specializing in DSM that's beginning to get national recognition for it's accoplishments. About the hatch, if I bring it up to 5.5K rpm, and dump the clutch, there's a good chance of a few things happening: 1. Timing belt snaps and it all goes to hell 2. POP 3. clutch can't grab, and I end up smelling "slipped clutch" for the next 5 days, and if the clutch does manage to hold (it won't) 4. the tranny takes a shit or 5. I pulverize my mounts and send everything in all directions b/c they're beat to death and broken as it is.

...ok, I've done it again, I've abused the priveleage of unlimited text in a post... sorry guys....
