did you have any issues with the vacuum lines? on the f22a4 the lines are different than the f22b1. i can't really get a good look in the pics. also i heard that i have to extend the o2 sensor wires by 12-14 inches and the MAP sensor wires. let me know what i am in store for because i have to do it in 2 days so i don't want anything unexpected but when you do a swap there will always be something unexpected. thanks for the help.

I didn't extend the O2 sensor, The only change I had to make to the harness was with the EGR's plug. It has the Prelude round style plug. But you could easily over come that by just using your F22Ax EGR.
As for the vacum lines it was no big deal. You connect them to the F22B1 just as you would on the Ax, You know 20/24 go to Vacum, one to Vacum for the CC, 16 to the EGR, 3 to the Canister, and the last one to the Map (13 I think). The only thin I did was make a small barb out of brass so I could use the 4th gen's map sensor in the box instead of the on TB design the 5th gen has. No big deal really. It's just these little things that make you think and most times develop cool little solutions.

well i finished my f22b1 motor swap tonight. i started on friday night after work and got finished with everything tonight. it starts up and runs great. no coolant leaks or oil leaks. the oil pressure is running at a solid 15 psi(autometer gauge). i took my time on it that is why it took so long. now the problems i ran into were: the downpipe for the manifold was short about 3 inches, i had to extend the o2 sensor wires by 12-14 inches because the hole was at the end of the downpipe instead of being in the manifold itself, dipstick is different, had to get different throttle cable. i installed my new motor mounts which i filled with polyurethane and i did my camgear. plans for the motor are unsure of right now i am just glad i got the swap done. if i knew how to host pics i would of the before and after but i don't. i will be able to drive it wednsday because i am waiting on a sensor that was broken. i will let everyone know how i like it. i am also going to install a VENOM 400 control module. the help that is given on this forum helped me out tremedously because everyone knows what they are talking about. thanks alot for the input everyone shared.
