    Do the fuel injection swap first, that will be one less thing you need to do when it comes time to do the swap.

    apparently, you didn't go that far over the b20a info. otherwise, you would've also realized that they're nearly impossible to get from importers. you would've also seen the accord b18a, which is carb and will bolt in. and, if you want, get a bigger fuel pump and you could probably run the b20a with the a20a intake.

    then the easiest way to do that would be buy another efi car to function as donor so you can do the pgm-fi swap. and carbs aren't all that bad. i saw a crx in '05 in honda tuning, guy was running ~200 hp na a d16a6--with carbs. and a 320 hp a20-powered 84 civic sold on ebay in january...

    here's the link for that crx...
