F22A1 vs A4 vs A6 - differences?

[Shadow1]

Well I just went to a salvage yard yesterday to get a new motor and linkage for my windshield wipers and they had like 5 or 6 cb7's sitting out there all in good shape. The one I was getting the parts off of had an F22A6 in it. So I guess now i'm gonna go back and see about the intake mani, ecu, and cam but what about the oil pan? I mean I know having the baffle would be better I guess but would it be actually be worth crawling through the mud and shit that i'm gonna have to do out there to get it off the car lol? The Honda I found it on is gonna be a bitch to get it off of but oh well, they are pretty cheap on their prices. Thanks for this thread because I had the same question and was going to post it this morning. I saw F22A6 yesterday and was WTF. But then again this is my first CB7 so I still have alot to learn.

dont take the motor apart. just get the entire thing. the windege tray isnt worth going thru all the crap for it. just get the entire motor out of it and swap it in. the majority of the a6 motors(that ive seen) have been driven by old people or women who dont know what they have. lol. so the motor should be in good shape.

when i was living in MD i found an a6 in a '91 SE. full black leather interior and all. the car only had like 50k on it. i was freakin siked about it. but like 3/4 of the car was crushed. it was in an accident and rolled over. so i just took the a6 IM off of it.


get the motor out of it. do a tune up on it, oil seals and all and you should have a perfectly running a6

91 SE
92-93 EX and SE.

I believe the A6 also came in the 91 EX wagon. I'm not positive on this though.

Yeah I would do that but people have kind of went through and taken whatever they needed off of the engine. I haven't checked the other ones out though because when we got there they were about to close and we had ALOT more stuff to do that day. I went back today and got a price list from them though and they sell their engines for $200.00 so I am DEFINITELY going to be making a phone call tomorrow and seeing what they have in stock. I know they had alot of them sitting inside their storage building but like I said we were short on time so I didn't get a chance to look.

dont worry about what they've already taken off the car. all the parts you have bolt and hook right up to that motor. all the motors are the same with the exceptions of the a4's exhaust manifold, the a6's cam, intake manifold and ECU. all the wires and tranny will hook right up. all you need is the motor and ECU.

the header you have on the motor in your car now will bolt right up to it. along with the dizzy and wiring. just get the motor and ECU and put everything back in its place when you put the a6 in

Yeah I wish I could. I have never done a swap before even if it would be a simple one i'm not sure when I would have the time for the car to be immobile long enough to do it. I mean as far as taking the time to do the A6 swap, if he has a H22 he will sell me either engine for the same price. But then again the money spent on axles, suspension, and everything else to do the h22 swap could go for a turbo A6 and still have wheels or other mods. Who knows, i'll just have to see what he has out there before I can figure out the best way to go. Thanks for the help info/help though.

anytime man. if you want you can just take the cam, ECU, and intake manifold and you'll be good with those

so which years/models came with an A4 motor?

are you guys sure that A6 is only 92-93?

91 SE
92-93 EX and SE.

A6 from manual cars do not have an OEM oil cooler
A6 from auto cars have The OEM oil cooler similar to the ones found on the f22b,h23, h22.

there you go

Damn, after hearing all this. I'm thinking of keeping my motor.

[91 EX-R]

No one ever confirmed this when I posted it before, but I'm pretty sure the A6 was in the 91 EX wagon.
