So I have a 90 accord and my friend has a 79 lying around. I'm just wondering if anyone has done the swap before or if it's even possible. I know that it'll take some custom work. I'll be doing a full swap ecu trans wiring harness.
 
I have no clue but get a tape measure first to see if it will physically fit

The car widths are only a difference of 3 inches fir the wheelbase and overall width. It should work. Also I'm willing to cut away and re fab the front end. I just want to know if the weight would be thrown off because I'm looking to run circuit with it.​
 
The actual clearance in the bay matters more than anything. is it tall enough to close the hood and not drag the oil pan on the ground?

I imagine the f22 is 50-100 lbs heavier or so than the stock motor. If you're planning to cut it up anyway, it's probably a moot point.
