okay...i own a 93 VTEC prelude...it has almost 150k miles on it...please keep in mind that this will be my weekday daily driver and want it to last.
1. should i get a new motor or rebuild my usdm h22a...what do you think i should do?...if i do a rebuild what should i buy to make it like "new"?
2.if i buy a new motor should i just get the jdm h22 and do basic mods, or spend the money and get the h23 vtec or h22 type-s motor?
3.the h23 vtec and h22 type-s are ODB 2 and my car is ODB 1 right? does that mean i have to get the converter or it can be programmed via a chip for these engines?
4.with these 2 expensive motors and the transmission is better on these two motors, do i need to do a full swap or can i just swap the long block-a bare engine including the block, head, valves, crankshaft, camshaft, and pistons, but does not include the manifolds or any accessories like the alternator or power steering pump.
Thanks in advance for your advice
