What the purpose of the rebuild? Just to replace worn internals or to build it for more power?

Live2Rice is in the process of building a nice normally aspirated H22... he has a thread in the off topic section with the specs.

You'll have to be more specific on what information you are looking for. Are you just doing a stock rebuild or what? and what specs are you looking for.

He has a F22a, Bisimoto is the king of F22as, for the top shop challenge he got 360hp out of one N/A. I dont think this member is looking to build for horsepower though.

89mm is a good bore, if you are serious about big hp you would probably want to resleeve it. but you could make decent hp on a stock set up. The main thing you need to decide is do you want to keep it naturally aspirated or go forced induction/nitrous.

no the diameter of the cylinder from wall to wall. You need to decide up front if you ever want to turbo, supercharge, or nitrous, you cant build N/A then decide later you want to add nitrous, cause you will blow it up real quick.

Bisimoto is the king of F22s. He has gotten 360hp out of them naturally aspirated which is pretty much unheard of. Granted it was pretty much just a dyno motor that only had to be run full out once then it could blow up. But either way check out his site: bisimoto.com
