Well if you just blew a headgasket,then just replace the headgasket. Take the head to have it checked out by a reputable machine shop for warpage...etc. Or just F*** it and make it a perfect excuse to swap a DOHC in there.

Hmotorsonline is by far the best dealer for JDM motors, but kind of expensive as well. Tiger is kind of a gamble but alot cheaper though but I heard alot of good feedback about Tiger. Im pretty sure they both have warranty so you should be ok. Not too sure about the one in California you are talking about.

wouldnt mind having a type s euro h22 but thats to much mite as well get a type r for that price i priced a reg h22 for 2,500 and i think it comes with everything i would need.would the type s throttle body/intake manifold go with the reg h22?

is the h22 the only motor that would do a cb7 some justice would the k20,gsr,b series or f20 not fit. i read about the j32 v6 civic i went on youtube and seen the dyno and thats crazy power lol

Brotha Man, plz go to the swaps section and check out all the motors for the cb, K series has been done(k24) by 2point6.

Gsr's or anything under 2.0 is a waste of time, r cars r to heavy for those lil 1.8L's.

Read the Stickys it will help you understand about your car more. Period

yes it was hmotorsport that i was talkin bout. i will find out tomorrow wat the word is going to be. i dont mind paying top dollar for a good quality motor and of its under warranty well that wats up with the biz. jus ready to get back on the road imma pull my 19s off and drop the car again wit sum 16s. but i think imma keep it auto with the lsd tranny. tired of these guys here pulln back on me at 3rd gear so imma get the motor and tranny reworked while out the car if i get a h22

i like how people on here try to replace the problem instead of actually solving the cause.

for starters...honda heads are not notorius to cracking. an easy way to indicate a blown headgasket is check consistency on spark plugs and same with exhaust ports. if you are consuming water, the port will look a lot cleaner than the rest.

well mista 3k,no offense sir lol. i have been through 3 sets of ngks in the last month. today wen i pulle number one spark plug from the left of and tried to crank it it shot up water from the spark plug whole or whatever its called. kinda strange but when i think bout it last night it ran hot in a local rally's drivethru with my girl maybe yall got a checkers same same.i dont jus want to trash the motor i really wanna keep it and be diff but it was not ran right but once since i got it.revved to 7 grand when i first did swap and it hasnt had vtec hooked up any running f22 tranny,ecu and wiring harness.look at 91/99 cb7 you will see it. im just trying to catch up and run the motor the right way.

Not trying to be a dick here but....can you make a little bit of effort to construct legible sentences? Your posts in this thread are sometimes difficult to understand.

the f23 is obdII so you probably have everything all wired.

If you just want to get it running again, I'd try changing the HG. If you're set on going forward w/ a swap, I'd shop around a bit knowing what some people charge for these swaps. In most cases they're incredibly overpriced compared to what the wholesale cost is on any given engine. Just to give you a baseline, the average H22 swap w/ auto trans wholesales for 500-700$ for the complete swap package, so I wouldn't pay over 1500 retail for it. That's just my .02 though.
