Default H22a? Honda Accord...

I don't know much about cars, let alone engines, but my 1997 Honda Accord has a lot of miles on it, and wanted to know if anyone could basic info on engine swaps that fit in my Honda, becuase I don't know numbers or techinal names at all....

I live in the Philly area, so if anyone knows any good engine persons in the area, that would be really helpful.

Thank you.

F23a

I believe is what you got now

Never mind thats 98 and up, my bad

You'll need an F22 OBD2

Check your engine block and tell me what it is

H22a - JDM prelude Engine
H22a1 - USDM Prelude Engine
H22a4 - USDM Prelude Engine 97+

H22 is probably the most popular swap into the Accords and Preludes

Yes it would fit into your car with little modification....but not worth it if you're only looking for a replacement
