If you are going to swap the motor and keep the auto transmission then you won't see much gain in performance. Honda automatic transmission are not the strong point even for stock engine.

 

h23a vtec came out of the Japan siR wagon. Not available in the states

f22a engines came from the cb7 accords (90-93)

 

F series motor f22b2 f22b1 f22a1-6 f20c and whyy because IMO its the strongest motor honda made! i have the f22b2 with 243k on it and its still goin strong also the motor is great for boost low compression 8:1

 

I will be buying a COMPLETE vehicle as a project, so I was wanting to know which engine was the favorite among Honda owners and why.
Needing also to know which vehicle and years of manufacture that engine came in stock.

It HAS to have an auto trans and there will be NO engine swaps or major mods.

Needing to gain knowledge from all the members here so my money is spent wisely.


Thanks in advance.

 

I will be looking at an Accord from 1990-1999.

A STOCK vehicle--no engine swaps or major mods.

Now what is your choice of these years?

 

90-93 accord all day every day. But that's just me

f22a engines are stout and will last a long time if taken care of properly. I would say find a 90-93 accord EX or SE. If you can snag the EX or SE with the f22a6 engine would be the best. It produces the most amount of power from all the f22a engines
