lets take that idea one step further shall we..

why replace a perfectly working motor in an almost brand new car that is 1yr old or less old with an older higher mileage motor :slap:

your best bet in this situation would be to, turbo the current motor or trade in your car go and buy the V6 model or a TSX like you should have bought in the first place.

H22 Preludes are so F-ing cheap on the market right now, why would anyone waste the time to stuff one in a Cord? Sell the fricken Accord and go get a Lude.

Else, if you have a new Accord and want a faster version sell it and get a TSX.

It requires a great deal of effort to shove an H22 into an Accord, and it's still not as cheap or common as B's into Civics--so in the end since the H22 runs 3-4g alone you are well better off just getting an H22 Car to go with it and actually have something Honda could service and you could actually get a bank loan for or sell down the road.
