While i was searching for a manual trans, i found a F20B DOHC VTEC Engine, it says its for accords 97-01, sounds stupid but i was wondering if it can fit in our cars, i have a 99 btw, and if swapping this motor would even be worth it. im planning on forced induction later on, so you guys think this motor is any good? has anyone tried it, i searched it but nothing came up

Ok, Well its the same motor as the h22 with less displacement, less power and less torque!

Have fun being different!

Accords are too heavy. Do a Euro R H22 220hp stock.

I believe honda made that motor from a de-stroked h22 to compete in the 2.0l class races.

Why do people have to put 6 exclamation points/question marks behind the title? Reminds me of those annoying craigslist ads... 2003 Acura TL 3.2!!!!!!!!!!!! Like that car is THAT special.

OP if the purpose of your swap is to be different rather than make more power, I would go with the F. I have to disagree, I constantly hear about 6GA's with H series motors on this site, they are everywhere. But I am guessing there aren't alot where you live, so the car would still be different if you do go H.
