So which swap is better into a Prelude 4th gen(k24a2 or H22JDM)?
The H22 is so much easier to do I would have to vote for that one. Having said that, Prelude and Accord K-series mounts are on Hasport's to do list. It is a better engine.

I would have to agree w/ brian g... but I'd specifically be looking for the type s tranny to mate with the h22... gearing is so tight w/ that tranny... unless you're planning on boosting... f22 tranny all the way then lol. a k24 would be badass in a lude... but the mounts arent out yet and fabricating mounts is something i dont trust myself to do lol... nor would i want to go through the headache of it... hasport has the technology and equipment needed to make the mounts high quality with a great ride.

Only down side i can see for the H22 is the trannies. They are so limited. Stock 4.2 FD and the gears are not nearly as short as a B series b16 tranny or JDM ITR with 4.7FD
Why if h22s came with the equivalent of a JDM ITR tranny stock on any honda car equiped with a h22 i might not be on this board right now. :rolleyes:

Prelude22 if you are really serious about swaping your motor. you should wait for the mounts to swap a k24. well at least that's what i'd do. with the k motor you'll get more displacement, a lighter engine, the option for a six speed, vtc, and just an all around better engineered engine. the list goes on.

good luck with what ever you decide. oh and welcome to the site.

Your advising him to mate the H22 to a Kseries tranny? So you think he should make the H22 spin clockwise?
