im looking for an urgrade in motors..
currently i have a 3rd gen prelude with a b20a6 in it.. but parts and mods for this engine are hard to come by.
so if anyone has any options for me, not 100% sure on what to go for. friends told me to do a h22a swap, but thats too much work..

For what you would spend trying to mod the stock motor may as well go H22a.
Even stock it will be a huge power increase.Also the motors are relatively cheap compared to b series as the demand isn't as high.
How come its says you have 2001 S2k?

but putting the h22a into a 3rd gen? ? its a bit of messing around isnt it?
im thinking of the b20 vtec, need a bit more info on it..
as for the s2k, it was my work car.. but then when i quit i had to give it back :( but there was always something about the 3rd g ludes... so i got one of them...

Ye I know what you mean.They are a nice car.The series 2 Cita is the one to get.The last model.
Not sure about the finer details of the h22 swap but i've seen a few around.

I thought the b20a6 had different head stud placement to the crv b20 and the b16 head wont fit?
