ex motor

[Bcozzi71]

I bought a motor today out of a 92 ex.....this is a f22b1 if im right this should fit perfect to replace my f22a1.... I think im getting this whole deal down. New to the whole import seen. i wasnt allowed to buy one untill after alot of begging. I got the motor for $150.. i have to pull it out this saturday.
Any idea on the easy way of pulling this out without a lift. Im thinking just cutting it out.

Thats not an ex motor out of a 92...there was no such thing as vtec for 90-93 accords. f22bX motors were out of 5th gens. USDM cb had the f22aX. And it should be an a6. Didnt you make another thread like this???

no....i didnt think it was a vtec.....but i thought the ex had a f22b1 and lx had a f22a1...

VTEC on accords were not built until 1994.

yea i started another one because i get some error when i try...im on a cell phone so it doesnt let me go back pages to find my other post.....i realize this isnt a vtec but what kind of motor is in the 92 ex and will it fit in my lx?

[ExplodingCake]

The engine in the 92 Ex (f22A6) will fit the LX 100% because they are the same engine but the EX one's gets more kick.

slightly.

About 10 to 15 hp more depending on year of LX.

ALL LXs have the F22A1 rated at 125hp. The year doesn't matter.


The F22A6 has 140hp. It's the best USDM CB7 motor you can get. IMO, a MUCH better choice than an F22B1!


You NEED a lift. There really isn't any other way to do it without risking damage to the motor.


Where are you getting it from? I'm in South Jersey as well. I'd offer to help, but I'm working on Saturday.



Also, 155 at the wheels? Dyno, or assumed? HondaFan81 has some pretty significant mods done, and that's just about what he has...

[Bcozzi71]

yea its in hammanton....in in haddonfield where you abouts..........this is what im told i was dyno at from the former owner...(not best source)...i have full flowmaster exhaust, dc headers, CAI, bigger throttle body ....all msd igntion, optium battery, upgraded suspension and brakes stainless steal fuel and brake lines......other stuff i cant remember....plus tint rims amp that kinda crap

[Bcozzi71]

I could put it on a lift at auto shop but im not buyin the car just the motor so i cant move it

[deevergote]

Are you getting it from a junkyard? If so, most yards have hoists to pull motors. You can toss it in the back of a truck (I see you have a friend with a bronco... make good use of it!) 2-3 strong guys can lift a motor. It's not fun, but I've done it.

If those are the only mods... then either that guy was lying, or the dyno was improperly calibrated. With those mods, you're looking at MAYBE 120whp.

I'm in Deptford, not too far away.
Check the Regional section. There's a meet on Sunday in New Brunswick. You should come check it out!

[Bcozzi71]

yea im sure the guy was lying....i no its pretty fast just not that fast....yea i think it more than 120 but not 155....yea deptford is near by i played them in the playoffs last year for football.....yea i might check it out...i normally go to cherry hill on tuesday nights or audubon on sats if u go to either those hangouts.....also im not a normal haddonfield kid im not rich...so pleae dont prejude. if i was rich would i have a 92 accord with a blown motor??
