Hey guys, I have a Q, I have a 95 Accord, I can get a 2001 Accord F23A1 engine, tranny, and ecu for about $500, my question is that will the F23 fit into my Accord, or will I have problems with mounts? The reason I'm considering the F23 is b/c of the lower compression, and when I turbo it, I want it to be daily driven, H22's are being done everywhere, this is also a little unique. I know when you boost engines, lower CR is good, so all I want is about 10 psi. The $1500 I save instead of getting an H22 I can get parts from Gude.......So, is it worth it?

P.S - Sorry for the long post.....and the engine only has 12K miles

 

you are gonna have a hard time... the engine itself is not an issue, the f22 and f23 are practically identical... the problem will come from going to OBDII from OBDI

 

But don't people convert 97 OBDII H22's to OBDI's? Coudn't I get a harness.....

 

dunno about converting F23A1 OBDII to OBDI

 

94-95 is OBDI? I thought it's II

 

2 things:

gude sucks

and

9:8:1 compression (f23) v. 10:0:1 (usdm h22) is not much of a difference
