    B16 Swap

    Okay, I'm tired of using the bloody search option...>:O

    No matter what I search I can't seem to find anything on this topic.

    The B16 can fit, If you have the mounts correct?

    If so, I was going to just save up some money and do the swap.

    I found 4 out in richardson texas, from 1,700 to 2,200 With the engine, ECU, and full transmission...

    Or is the B20A2/7 worth it even more? Cause I know that engine has what. 30 more torque.

    For the B20. Or just the B16?

    Cause I remember reading some stuff on the B16 need all of that stuff.

    And I know I have to get a JDM B20A2, or 7, cause the one in the older Prelude I think doesn't fit.

    About how much should I look at...Cause Maybe I could just hit up my junk yards and see what they have.

    Re: B16 Swap

    B20a dont need any mounts or custom axles.. you just need 2 passenger side axles out of A20a and B20a ECU. and no B20a/5/7 will not fit. Only B20a2/8 will bolt on.. other engines like B20z from CRV or B16/B18 engines will have to be customized with mounts axles, wiring etc etc..

    Its prttey fnuny how you can raed tihs eintre snetnece with all tehse ellters out of palce...
