yeah, a b20A5 which is found on reg preludes. if ur A20 is the same mounting pattern as our 3g accord A20, u got nothing but a b20A1 which is a direct bolt on.

The 87's use the same A20A3 3rd gen Accords use and not the B20A5 (that's the 88+ Ludes). Look in the FAQ or engine swap section for B series motor swaps and the JDM B20A will also drop right in but they are kind of tough to find as a "whole" with everything you need to make it work.

you have to cut off the valve cover over the gears and probly trim the inside hood support to put a B20 in a lude.
otherwise u need a euro or JDM 'bumped' hood
