A20A1 to A20A3

[88' Accord Ltd]

How many more things would I have to change if I took an A20A3 out of another accord and dropped it into my carbed accord. Would it be as simple as just swapping it over like that? with the ecu and gauge cluster? or would i have to change other things in the engine bay for it to work properly? Reason I'm asking is I want to put a rebuilt engine into my accord and I was wondering if it would be just as easy as taking the EFI engine and dropping it in. Thanks.

i think you need a fuel tank from a fuel injected accord...

Well fuel tank isn't that important - but ya do need
- cpu, whole wire harness, fuel pump,
and then run fuel feed line from pump to engine bay.
- Also need the vacumn box for an efi
On mine I modified my Gauge cluster to an EFI one so I still have the original KM's on it, there pretty easy to modify once ya take them apart and see how they work.
but ya unfortunatley its not just plug and play, but if ya have to buy a new motor anyway then its probably worth it

if you're just talking about the engine... it requires no mods. If you want the EFI stuff, you'll have dirty hands for the next 4 weeks

Yah i just meant the whole engine. So I would need the EFI gas tank? and the fuel pump from it as well?

I wrote a bunch of info on the e-mail I just sent about the swap but this will go into all the details you need. There's a link to Carotman's how-to. http://209.151.81.66/showthread.php?s=&threadid=112
