    MY b20a JDM!!!! So Proud!

    Here are some pics of my brand new used B20A JDM engine!

    i've already started to remove some parts as the AC compressor. Carotman already take it, so don'T ask me for. The tranny are manual F2K5. It look in perfect shape.

    Wow that is the most complete B20A i have seen. I cant wait to see how much the shipping is gonna be on an a/c compressor from Japan but i will die withought a/c. Looks good should be nice when your done.

    maybe Carot won'T put it, so be patient.

    The compressor of the b20a was SOOOOOO heavy! Carot's face was just like and he told me"I don't know now if i'll put it on my b20a.

    The engine was complet when i've bought it. nothing was missing. exept the car
    I still have everything like the fuel rail, air filter box and the compressor is now at Carotman's house. I'll remove the PGM-Fi to put 2 Weber 40 Dcom and looking for some minor modification too. Like cam gear(like yasu), Cam, piston.

    I'll have to swap my car automatic to manual too.

    That looks really good. It is the best looking I've seen in a while, and so complete. They usually come with lines cut and stuff missing. Good luck with your project.

    Man I want to get a new engine now. Damit why didn't I decide that before I modded my A20A1 to hell and back. Well maybe I will stick with the A20A1 until.... I can't say it. But if that does happen I will just do a huge swap.

    The milleage is hard to say. However, there is a service sticker on the cam sprocket cover. This sticker is put when they change the timing belt.... so my guess is that his engine has at least 60k miled

    He have over 100 000km for sure. If you check with a zoom 1000x , you'll be able to see a 100 000km wrote on it.

    Accord B20A

    I don't know if I shared mail with you or not. I have a complete B20A I am putting in my 86 Lude. I have been posting and mailing between Paul, Mike and Yasu. Did you get your engine overhauled and if so, where did you get the parts for the bottom end? Also, did you buy a AC Compressor, Pwr Steering and Alternator, if so, where did you get them?

    B20A head for sale on EBay

    I almost forgot to tell you and Paul. I stumbled across someone selling a crystal, clean overhauled B20A head on EBay. I don't need it of course, because I have the rebuild kit to overhaul my head.

    yeah i'm the one you've emailed. My engine came with the AC compressor on it. If you check the fisrt pic, you can see it. The alternator was on it too. For the power steering, it came on the engine too. Look at the pics and you'll see that my engine came almost complete.

    about the seals and the bearing, i've asked to carotman and he told me that the seal and bearing of the b20a5 are the same.

    In the pic of your engine I noticed that there is a spacer between the top and bottom parts of your intake. I have never seen this on any other stock engine so I was wondering what it is exactly. ( ie: Nitrous injection plate, just a spacer to increase intake runner length ) If you take your intake apart could you please take detailed pics of this piece and post it or email it to me? Thank you.
