    Damn..... someone with swap experience!
    I nominate you as the new non-B20 swap info guy......lol; and I'm only half joking.
    What are you using for mounts??? Custom?

    My personal experiences with the H22 would turn me to a GSR or type R. They are nice engines and make great power but they are big and have a ton of crap on them. If i didnt know 2 close friends with them and the problems they come with i would say great. And i hear the trannies are not that great for abuse either. B-series have all the aftermarket support you can ever want and still growing even with the k-series boom.

    But if you do it successfully the more power to you. We have had a hand full of people claim to be in the middle of it and never finish. So far i have seen pictures of one done in the past. If the PRI mounts were still available for the 3rd gen prelude i would think you could re-work them to fit the accord chassis.

    i'll believe an H22 swap when i see it. Not to be an ass, but there's a difference between planning on it and actually going through with it. You should search for threads about H22 swaps. There's a thread where a guy was talking about everything that was making the swap difficult.

    good luck.

    i was gonna flame you after looking at your cardomain pic to tell u that its not a H22 obviously, but reading ur post again made me realize how much of ass i would made outta myself if i did do it. Anyway, Yeah do the swap first, then start a thread. not be an ass, but u are the third thread in a year that has popped up with the starting intro of "im putting a H22 in my accord" kinda deal. Last two died and one just gave up in anger, but u, well we will have to see two months and pics of progress will convince us to shut up and be nice to you.

    oh here is ur B16

    looks like we are gonna have a turbo 3g vs hybrid 3g war. The timeslips and cost will be the factors...

    well we will see... ive never seen an H22 powered 3g accord before (gives the benefit of the doubt). Usually the N/A setups are more costly

    You never saw that white one from canada? I have a picture still of it and i think he posted on the board a few times.


    Good Luck, For your B16 swap you did it right with the harness and all which was a good thing because the Place Racing one was not cheap nor always set up right.

    The one i saw was the only one that was running that im aware of. I will dig up the picture(s) later. He actually did a nice job with it and had the engine bay painted and stuff. Now that i think of it it was probably a while ago because i recall talking to Justin about it.
