				 | WAY more trouble and money than its worth, if it would even work...  Go to a junkyard and pick up an EX engine for not much money at all.

				 | i guess i'll just go and steal a prelude engine with those prices !  anyway if i wanna buy a rebuilt f22 is gonna cost me around the same price for the short block, with no headcover, no maniforld, no tranny, no nothing, just the block and the head

				 | im telling ya accord owners, you just dont know what your missing with the h22 untill you get it. you'll never regret the pains of doing a f22 head swap. you'll get MAYBE 150hp out of the f22, where the h22 is 200 out of the box.
