looking for your opinions..
I have two cars.
1. 1991 Honda Accord Wagon
2. 1990 Honda CRX Si
my accord wagon is an Automatic and has a blown head gasket...
the crx is a rolling shell with no motor, no wires, nothing, (not even a dashboard)...
I bought a H22A1 with 96K miles with complete wiring harness and P13 VTEC ECU from a 1993 Honda Prelude Si VTEC. I did not buy the manual tranny with it but i can get it still.
My original plan was to put the H22A1 into my accord...keep the motor stock and get back my daily driver, and put a K20A into my crx..
After reading alot online about swapping the h22 into my accord, I'm finding that i should replace certain parts (H23 manual Timing Tensioner), and the balance shaft seal on the motor since i am already replacing the timing belts and have the motor half apart..
My Question is this:
should i continue adding upgrades, and drop it into my crx, OR just replace the necessary parts and drop into my accord wagon?
Should the CRX get the H22A1 or the K20A, knowing that there are more mods for the H22 than the K20.....for now...and the h22 takes turbo better than the k20A (type -r motor)..
