LOL
LOL
but yea, i agree with you. I love this engine platform, and do wish it came with forged internals.
Im currently working on f22a6 swap into an cx hatch.

Re: Whats wrong with f-series?
Damn howd I let this tread buy....
I just picked up a prelude in the spring, and have been, "collecting" F engines for an upcoming build next year. The BEST thing I love about these engines is that they are CHEAP. I just bought a complete F22 for 60$ from a kid who did an H22 swap. Noone wants these engines, and its really fun to find deals on them.
I myself am just trying to learn a bit more about the engine, but from what Ive seen by taking mine apart, I like it. Like a D block only bigger, with larger ports and intake mainifolds, and way better torque numbers. Im in the process of turboing the prelude's motor and its damn nice for a budget setup since you dont have to make a manifold for it [mitsu mani]. But next year Im going to build one f the blocks Ive got for a Holset setup....

Re: Whats wrong with f-series?
Allright since I killed this thread....I'll drop a question
Why the H crank, other then H rods are cheaper and easier to find....wouldnt this raise up your compression? It shortens the stroke length right...so is that what the purpose is...to keep the stroke shorter?
With the F....you dont really have to sleeve ----... just put in forged pistons, and use the 50mm h crank with h rods....

If he had a different transmission in it the story might be different, but the 4th gear in a F22 transmission is like over drive. The Y1 transmission that I have gave me a huge advantage on the highway, but the initial torque and power of his engine was enough to stay with me until the top end of my B16 and the gearing of the Y1 transmission allowed me to pull away.
Can't wait to see how his white project turns out.
