The h22a out of the prelude. The 200 hp v-tec engine. My friend reid is putting one in my car for show. I might race it. but yes it can be done and it is worth it. I drove one that we have around here. And it hauls. so if you have the money go for it. Heres the email i got form my friend reid who is putting mine in now.


I can put a 200 horsepower jdm h22a dohc vtec prelude engine into your car. I know a guy who makes mounts for this swap and has it in his car, due to the power of the engine, and relative lightweight of the car, with slight modification you can run in the 13's!!! It will cost a pretty penny, not much more than any other swap but you would be looking at about $4000 installed, and ready to go!!! Pretty cheap if you consider how cool it would be to be one of very few people who have this swap! Let me know.-Reid

There yea go

i just had a friend tell me that the motor will make you lose your handling and driveability, cause the engine is so heavy it will knock the car off its natural balance.

fill the backend with neons man, more green, weight it down to insanity, that should correct the balance!

if you are worried about an extra 75 pounds up front, add a pair of subs in the back, this will balance you out, and you will have better traction due to the extra 150 pounds.. it might add a detract from you ET, but i think it could be worth it

Iron is a bit heavier than aluminum, isn't it. After all the H22A is a all aluminum engine, whereas our car's of course have a iron block.

I highly doubt their is much of a difference in weight between these engine's. One could settle this buy finding out the shipping weight from whomever sell's and ships either engine.

Even if it does weigh more - it won't be much, and think of the power : weight ratio that you'd get with that puppy...

Got for it...especially if you can get it for $2500! :bow:
