what would you guys recommend?

the only one's I know of are hmotorsonline and tigerjapanese...

I've heard good things about hmotorsonline... is tigerjapanese reputable?? I've heard mixed reviews... I ask this because they're a little bit cheaper on longblocks vs hmotorsonline... although I like that I can get a t2t4 lsd tranny and a pbc ecu with the motor I choose to get threw hmotorsonline. :D

also... Im getting ready to build another motor... what would you suggest?

h22a4 again..
h23a vtec
f20b

I love the h22 I have but I've read that you can get a few hidden horses out of the h23a vtec using an standard transmisson and taking it to 8k rpms.. since it came out of an auto and only went to around 6 sumthing. and I like the thought of the f20b because it has iron sleeves..

what do you guys think I should do?

i wouldn't recommend the f20b ... they are awesome in civics, being light weight and all ... but unfortunately our 6ga's are just too heavy ... i was going to go the f20b route myself, good thing i didn't

you think so? they still make 200hp like the h22 and I know that the head is built just like the h22 type s so that's how it makes 200hp plus I can get a t2t4 tranny for 850 if I get the same tranny with the h23a they want 1000.. I dont know why though exactly... I might be able to get them to bring the price down for me if I went the h23 route

I was thinking of going the f20b route kinda because it's cheaper than the other 2. and I would be getting an lsd transmisson with it... after i threw that in there pull the h22 and build the piss out of it... cause I really want to build an h22 I know the whole re sleeving thing but I've seen so many great things come out of an h22 if you take the time to build it.. after I got done building it I would already have a lsd transmisson to throw on it! ;) and then sell the f20b

does that idea sound good? or do you still think I should go another route and build the new h22 or h23a?

These guys are local to me, and I just learned about them. I'm not sure how long they have been in the game, and I'm not sure when their online store is actually opening, but they could be an option. I liked what I read on the site about their pricing and customer service. I met one of the guys from there and he seemed like a good guy. Just throwin it out there.

I think some people have also gone to http://www.car-part.com/.

Good luck man.

I dont buy Honda motors from any where but www.hmotorsonline.com We've bought about 15 engines from them, 3 of them were for me. All of them have been perfect.
