Default My Plans need help before I buy

Found an H23 block with a spun rod bearing for 100 bucks. The crank will prolly be bad but that's okay im really focused on just getting an h23 block for cheap.

Then I found a good Crank, Type S prelude pistons and stock stress relieved rods for 200 or so.

Im gonna buy all this - but i need to know if the type s pistons will fit the h23 block - they were designed for the h22 right or do the same principle apply as it would with a bseries ls/vtec .

I plan on buying an h22 head and building internals up as cheap as possible.. I dont want to spend too much money on this project if I can help it. I also plan on buying an h22 lsd transmission.. thats where the bulk of my money will probably go... but the main focus of this project is later down the road im going to run Turbo. Prolly a t3/t4. Whats the cheapest approach to prepping the motor for a turbo and staying somewhat with stock internals. I mean, I don't want to blow my motor but I dont want to have to make everything fail proof either.

Suggestions welcome

a crank with a spun bearing u can probably just get it resurfaced and then use oversized bearings. The Type S pistons will work, H23 and H22 both have the same bore. Since you need a rebuild now and u want to go turbo, u should build it for turbo, or else u'll end up rebuilding it again which doens't make sense.
