well the stock motor for that prelude is the b20. however that b20 is not swappable with any other b-series motor out there, they are very different. in order to fix your car you would need, that particular block. w/o heavy modification you will not get any other b-series motor to work. you would just need a short block, and if its just the block that got damaged, you would just need the block, no reason wasting money on a whole short block.

The B21 was the original motor for that 91. A B20a5 will drop in and would make a better motor. The JDM B20a will also drop in and give you aprox. 145hp which would be even better. I just dropped my B20a in my 3rd gen with ease.
