    a20a2?
    i think thats what you got!

    i believe that the a20a3 is for fuel injected, and i am not sure what the a20a1 is, but it might be for 2g accords...???

    A20A1 and A20A2 are the motors with carburetors. A20a1 was sold in the U.S. However it first was called labeled under "BS" in 1986 but then the label a20a1 or a20a2 was given in 1987.

    A20A3 and A20A4 are the Fuel injected motors. A20A3 was sold in the U.S. as well. In 1986 they were first labeled "BT" but then in 1987 became labelled either A20A3 or A20A4.

    I have heard there is also an A20a5, I believe sold in preludes, but I haven't confirmed it yet after searching in junkyards for it.
