ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

    Engine Swap 89' to 91'

    Ok just curious now, I know someone with a 89 accord motor, with cv shafts, could I swap in the 89 motor into my 91 or would it not be worth it?

      Dear god no! I started in the Honda world with a 3rd gen. A20A4 or A5 to be exact. They are reliable but thats it. No power or aftermarket support. The spark plugs are angled in the exhaust side of the head and are cocked just a tad. Poor design IMO. There is alot i could go on and say about them but ill just say this. They suck. I was a member of 3geez for a while. They all want our engines. lol

        The A20A and the F22A are TOTALLY different animals. I know... I have 3 A20As on my property right now.

        They have an iron block, which is good and bad. Good because it's strong as hell. Bad because it's heavy as hell.

        But no, getting an A20A into a CB7 would require so much work it wouldn't be worth it. Especially since you'd be losing .2L of displacement, 5hp, and you'd have to convert your car to OBD0. As SWMO said, there is no aftermarket support to speak of. You'd be better off doing the necessary work to install a B series. At least that has some support!

          ok thanks for the info. I know someone with a EX that she says the tranny is going and she will sell the car cheap after, so I may buy that and put in that engine.

              Just go buy a junkyard engine and replace gaskets. After all that work it's not super cheap bit I'd say it's better than buying a car for its 20+ year old engine that's probably not terribly far away from a rebuild itself.

                      You need to state what motor you are talking about, the year is irrelevant

                      If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                          So what you're saying is that this thread is already way off topic.
