Not a new member but been a while since I posted anything, last time I was here I needed some info on a h23a1 swap on a 94 cd5 chassis. Swap went great unfortunately blew oil pump & spun the mains. Soo here I go again. This time going for a shaved Bay & full wire tuck. It's alot of work. Doing it myself. Anybody had any good input or help it would be greatly appreciated. I will be posting ALOT of pics.
1st image is my f22b2 before the swap
2nd image is my h23a1 with partial wire tuck.

 

Welcome back. Looks good. What engine are you going to put in t his time?

 

I'm installing a 93 h22a blacktop (closed deck). Found one about a week ago for 500 with just over 100k. Been looking for an obd1 closed deck h22a since I f@#×ed up my h23a1 a few years ago. Lol.

 

Good choice. Makes sure to replace the timing belt and such before you install.

Also from personal experience, I would check the oil pump too.

 

Lol. Yeah def won't make that mistake again. Planning on rebuilding the engine using an h23 crank & rods, type s pistons & cams & a balance belt delete (not to sure about it though, are there any advantages to doing it?)

 

Welcome back and HEY! don't you be leaving again soooooo sooooon !

 

Thanx wheel broker & I'll try.

 

removing the balance shafts frees up a little hp. But will make the engine vibrate a little bit more.

If its just a fun weekend car that you plan on tracking and such I'll do it. If its your daily driver then I wouldn't.

 

It's my summer car. I don't race it. Just wanna have a motor with enough hp/torque to drag around all the extra weight of my sound system. So I guess balance delete is out. Just out of curiosity where would be good place to start thread on my build. Got lots of pics I would like to post & maybe get some feedback from HAF community?

 

Go for "engine & internal" as a place to start.
