H22 head on F22???
I have a 95 accord and im getting very discoiuraged with her...she is treating me pretty bad right now and im going to have to rebuild the engine, however i was wondering if anyone knows if an H22 head will fit on the F22 block?? If that is the case you would be able to have the longer stroke of the F while having the DOHC of the H, I dont know if it would even run right or anything. I was also thinking of doing the infamous H22 swap however that looks like an expensive feat to overcome, and i'm in the USAF and i dont have an endless amount of cash. So know im looking at maybe turbo on the F22 after a little rebuilding. Does anyone know how well the F22 will do n/a?? Please any help send it to me...
Thanks

from what i understand, the h23 and the f22 have the same bottom end. they're stroke is the same. same rods and crank. but there is the obvious .1 liter overbore from the f22 to the h23.
anyway, i'm assuming that since people have a huge hassle with putting h22 heads on h23 bottom ends, you're going to run into the same problems they do.

but on the other hand, putting an h23 head on your f22 block might be a powerful possibility. and cost you less than doing an h23 complete swap.
but i'm not completely sure. you'll have to talk with others about it.
*edit.
now that i think about it, since the .1 liter displacement is probably bore, the combustion chambers are the same diameter. which wouldn't fit on the 2.2 bottom end.
so you'd either have to buy h23 pistons and have your block bored over .1 liter, or just buy the h23

they sell f22b dohc heads in japan.... they are blue i believe ... you can find a f20b dohc or a f22b dohc... you might be able to find the head of it somewhere to do the conversion to DOHC with that... the head is the defining feature of the block's letter....
h heads fit on all h blocks, f heads fit on all f blocks, and b heads fit on all b blocks.... or at least thats what i was told

like i said they are only jdm.. look on ebay?

the h22 would prolly be your most cost-effective choice, it is actually pretty cheap to do... like 2k for the engine and if you have someone install it i dont think thed charge you more than a grand at most (the swap is easy as pie... supposedly)
*edit... again
h22 accords also have alot of underlying support as far as the aftermarket is concerned, shops and everything usually know the swap and the cars really well

jdm accords came with f20b DOHC... there are pictures of them
the sir-t engine was a f20b dohc if i'm not correct
but they are most certainly around....
so he very well can do it without going to deep into "playing engineer"
