This is stupid. Search all you want the f23s were all the same. Save for ulev, vtec, and non vtec. Those had different numbers and what not. Other than those there isn't a difference.
What is the difference in the F23a reg & Black valve cover????

Same as the D15-16 valve covers.
Some non-Vtec has the black cover saying 16 valve and so on.
Some says Honda, some says Vtec.
They all fit no matter how difference their design is.
Pretty sure it is the same with F22/23 valve covers.

Black tops are jdm, but they do not have more power or anything. The only difference I heard was with the jdm transmissions.

Get ready to spend a whole of money...Many have said they are going to do this and quickly change their minds once they look at the logistics of it.

4 Cyl to V6 is a nightmare...just acquire a v6 car then do the j32 swap.

^agreed. Wayyyy too much work. At that point just scrap the accord and buy either a v6 one or a completely different model or make.

honda is known for their complication engines... i mean... look at the new ones...
2008-2012 ones:
i4:
lx, lx-p, se : k24z2 (making 177hp)
lx-s, ex, ex-l : k24z3 (making 190hp)
^instead of doing these 2 different engine set up for i4, y don't they give sway bar for the lx, lx-p, and se, and give us all engine cover!!! WTHECK!!!
and now look at the v6:
auto: vcm where some sometimes only 3 cylinder works during driving in eco condition (and makes mpg as much as the i4)
6-6: runs full 6cyl and make mpg as bad as the older mustang... sure it makes more power... but 18mpg is not fun
