f22 swap project

[Nik247]

im planning on gettin a f22 swap for my accord are there any engine mounts that exist or does it have to be custom made? has anyone already done this?

[MessyHonda]

no mounts...u will have to figure out the hydrolic clutch and shifter cable set up
in my opinion a 140hp engine is not worth the swap...u can get that much off the
stock engine with a port and polish, headers,cam and intake

as a F owner i agree... for the time and money spent to swap in the motor you coulda swaped in something else with much better power, if your gonna F swap why not H swap instead

[Tomisimo]

indeed. H or B18c is the way to go if you want to swap. and like Messy said, with P&P and few other moods, OBD1 maybe you can tune A20 to 140-150Hp. with less money it takes to swap any of those engines.

[Nik247]

i guess that makes sense its just that i found the engine for cheap but didnt consider the other things i would have to alter ya its proly a better idea just to work on the a20.

[Nik247]

i have heard of a port polish but can some please explain to me what is it how easy is it to do what i need and how it helps pls!!!

[Tomisimo]

Well they port (enlarge) your intake ports and exhaust ports, thereby enlarged ports on intake side make more air in to the combustion chamber, and larger ports on exhaust side let your engine exhale exhausts easier. Polished combustion chamber prevents carbon buildup and is generally makes easier to breath. This is something you cant do your self, better let professionals do this. as when done poorly you lose more power than gain.
Another thing you can do is port much B16 intake manifold with 60-65mm Trotle body .short(TB)
if you wont fine tuning, you can also port much Header Flange to the head ports and Gasket. This will give you more smooth power bond.
and with those moods and OBD1 swap and good ignition tuning will give you aprox 150-160@wheels I bet.

hope this helps

yeah you have to find a machinest that will port the head...and if you have some one flow bench it to have equal flow on all 4 ports

IMO sell the f22 and get a f23 block & h22a head for the win. heres a thread and another... gl!
