88-91 prelude, mainly any civic motor or inetgra motor if i can remember that would be an easy install...other than that with any other motor, just have to change little things here and there...mounts and such..the Si-R motor, i dont know how easy that would be to install, but since its mainly a JDM motor, its not gonna be that easy to find parts for the f20b because its kinda rareish...and mainly and b series motor can be interchangeble, as with the H and f series...the motor in it now is a b20?

i see....well the motor thats in there now is like the B20A6 or some shit like that. it runs fucking great, but its the carb. motor and ive never heard of it. after i pay it off (in sept-dec) i want to swap motors. i want the Si motor, but i want a more popluar/powerful one. ITS SO SLOW!!!!! i get passed by kids on big wheels. i guess its a show car for now.

UrbanRacerH23 it only takes a day of prepping and work to reweld new motor mounts in..

B series is good for your car, it's a light car so it doesn't need TOO much toqrue.. a little custom fabbing here and there won't hurt.

no such thing. its a b16a1 I think you just misspelled it. That car is hard to do anyswap in. and being that its carb you are going to have to do alot to switch it over to fuel injected. you have alot of work ahead of you my friend.
