I got a deal for 2200 for everything but a cam to change
is it a good price
Let me know

Thanks in advance!

Its been discussed, use the search button. search "euro f20" for the most recent discussion on here.

and probably for you, unless you can get an f20b cheap, youll be more satisfied with an h22 if youre like most others on here looking to swap.
good luck

parts shouldnt be hard to find. alot of parts are interchangable with the H22.

The F20 is a high strung motor with less torque than the H22. Our cars aren't exactly light... I'd go with the H.

f20c is the s2000 engine, which is completely different. The motor being discussed here is the f20b, used in accord euro-r's. Its basically a destroked h22a
