any1 help me?
Since your Have the H23a in your prelude, swapping in the H22a is a bolt in process using all your factory mounts etc.
2.5k is not a bad price if it includes gearbox and ECU.
Another option is to build yourself a H23a VTEC buy swapping the h22a Head etc onto
your H23a block.
Try contacting a few workshop/traders in your area to get a quote on either motor.
so if i change the H23 head to the H22A head i will have a H23a VTEC? will it blot st8 on or do i need gearbox and ecu?
In a simple answer yes.
You may require the H22a Piston & rods also.
This will require the H22a ECU & Gearbox aswell & axles & intermediate shaft also.
so can u make me a list if i want to use the H23A non-vtec block and H22A vtec head.. sorry im just tying 2 set my list
h22a halfcut around 2.5-3k... change everything over... especially gearbox straight forward conversion
get the h22
you wont regret it. swap it all over with new gearbox.
i did my own h23 to h22 conversion and now hav turboed it ull love it
dont bother with the hybrid. too much effort needed doing that. besides there aren't many mechanics with that sort of experience apart from those in the states.
just source for a blue top h23 vtec...best of both worlds..

dude, go to a wreckers and grab a blue top VTEC head and stick it straight onto your H23, get ecu, gearbox, pistons etc the little things. much better than dropping a H22 in (engine mount problems with different year) plus the blue top is rare and you may need to pay a bit extra for it but it's worth it!
