the guys said it was a h23a3

[deevergote]

H23A3? Never heard of it. I know of the H23A1, and the H23A (JDM, no number after it... that one is VTEC)

For $400, an H23A1 in decent condition is well worth it. It's a fairly straightforward swap.

Yes indeed, Either way h22 or h23 for 400 bucks is a hell of a deal, Well if the motor is good that is! You cant help if the dude don't know what he's got!

check rod bearings.

[tunerman]

h23a3 (edm) = h23a1 (usdm)

[deevergote]

There was an EDM H23A? I didn't know anyoe but the US got the H23, as it's a "big" motor in most parts of the world!

h23a3 (edm) = h23a1 (usdm)

i just bought it today and it does say h23a3 on the block.
