Wow, looks like a USDM Prelude front and USDM Civic rear. The engine bay looks exactly the same as my F22B2 though...

I think the F20 might be of the same family as F22 but UK made, comp. ratio 11:1

Yes, I believe the F-series blocks are nearly identical except for the larger 2.2L displacement marketed for us gas-guzzling power-hungry Americans and the 2.0L you have marketed for Europe along with most other 1.6L - 1.8L engines. 2.0L is pretty beefy in Europe...

In the UK there is a road tax break at 1.5 litre [actually 1.499litre] so small engines are popular but high comp/high rpm so that you can ring their necks. But 2l no longer considered big, it is the standard size for family saloons. 4, 5l and overonce the home for exotica like RR and Bentley and such as like now becoming much more common especially in German muscle and 4 x 4. So just like we are putting on weight like you so are our cars. Change of subject slightly, i am an oldtime bikerwho keeps current with new models - Triumph are back and they have a cruiser with a 1.4 litre engine IN A BIKE !!.
