F20c swap possible?
Getting back to the dream world here - wouldn't you like to own a F20c powered CRX? I would, 250 horses + such a light body would be very very nice. How much work would there be involved into making this happen? And I do know the engine sits sideways compared to the originals. It's either a clean B16 swap for me, or try and attempt the F20 if I ever come up with the money. Would it even fit under the hood??

anything will fit anything if youve got the time and the money. honestly go check your speed shop and they will tell you.

Re: F20c swap possible?
anything is possible with enough money and somebody with good welding skills. thats what it boils down to.
our american shop has a b16 running around alberta, eh!

Re: F20c swap possible?
speed shop? wtf? I dont like going to shops especially for labour - I enjoy working on the car myself. Would a Accord F20b bolt right up? Or are there special mounts out there?

Re: F20c swap possible?
the k series, h22, and ITR b18c5 are the highest HP engines that have aftermarket mounts made to bolt into a 4th gen.
in theory: h22 bolts into accord, so one would assume with some modification you could bolt the f20b the same way into a 4th gen as the h22. but why would you want to? just go with the h22 in that case. the f20b has less aftermarket support. h22 was mass produced. of course i'm gonna say go with the b18c5, it's bolt in 210 bhp @ 8100 with a 8900 rpm redline. the k series swaps have more HP but are still too spendy due to the "brand new" hype. you should have no problem bolting in the c5 if you do your own labor...its not too much harder to install than b16

Re: F20c swap possible?
im not to sure. but i would assume that the f20 has alot of torqe like the h22. we hav a h22 crx cruisin around tucson az but it has traction problems i guess. i bet theat could easily be fixed with some slicks and a good supension setup, traction bars dident help out that much
