Prelude Engine
 
Ok i posted at another sight how i wanted to drop a 84 lude engine in my 91 Accord. :rolleyes: and they informed me that it was illegal. Now i wanna know why and/if it really is? is it just because of emissions? or is there truly a law out there that states that you cannot take a old engine and put it in a newer car? :crazy: im so confused!~!!;(

yeah thre is a law saying that you cannot put an older engine in a newer car, nor you can put an engime with more miles on a car that has less miles. And let me ask you something ? why an 84 prelude engine ? where is the gain. i know lude engines are the cool thing to do but not that old engines

ya no kidding go with a 97 lude H22....theres some power for ya...:bow:

he can go up to 96 h22 without too much of a hassle. the 96 and newer need to be converted from ODBII to ODBI

Aight but how much would those engines cost me to put in and everything?!?!?!

ebpda9 08-01-2002 10:28 AM

around 3200 with engine, tranny, ecu, 2 sets of axles, and labor

Is an '84 Prelude engine even fuel injected? Does it put out over 100 hp? ;-)

AccordDude08 08-01-2002 07:33 PM

well will it be more if i am changing a auto into manual?!

ebpda9 08-01-2002 08:50 PM

actually most of the swaps are manual. all you need is a clutch, clutch master cylinder, and the clutch cable

ChrisCantSkate 08-03-2002 11:28 PM

the 84 lude isnt worth the swap, your accord engine is better. now a h22..... you'll cream yourself. i jumped from a f22 to a h22 (2 different preludes) and i cant tell you how happy i am that i did
