Well, obviously, I'm new here. And I'm doing something interesting yet sick.... I'm going to put a newer Honda engine into a '79 Prelude. Yes, I know it's just not right. But hey, it's better than my Dodge V6 plan, don't you say? Anywho, I just need some help on which engine would fit under my hood. The electrical, for the most part, needs to be redone anywaise so I don't really need to bother with that. So, yeah. I need all the help I need.

ill sell you my old 93 DX engine for cheeeep. (120K mi auto)
sorry to try and 
your sale but if your going to be spending all this time and effort, you dont want to throw a 70 hp engine in there. Not sure about clearance but the H22 in there would make it a sweet drag car. Basicly there is not going to be any engien that just bolts in, you going to have to relocate mounts, do tons or wiring. It will take alot to get it running.

hmm...i think that a B16 or B18c would be good enough.
none of the above will fit with out a hacksaw, die grinder and a welder.
I will leave the decision up to you- its your car. but do you REALLY want to spend 20 grand on a 1979 prelude?
that choice is yours to make- but i doubt you are going to get a b or h-series motor in there and working for cheaper.
