Dude, when you put a F22 head on a B18 block, it hauls ***. Don't worry about what everyone says, it will work, they just don't know it. Now get out there and show em' it will work......

hydro,

The F22 head is bar none the best al motor head. It flows like a mottherfucker. And, install is realy simple. It bolts on for the most part, but for best performance, follow these steps:

1)drill a 3/4" hole on each side of the cylinder head

2) drill a 3/4" hole on each side of the oil pan

3) buy 4 valve cover breathers from Summit Racing

4) attach the breathers to these holes

These help cool down the oil and pressurize the oil flow. This keeps the F22 head from getting oil starvation. This setup netted a 36 horsepower increase on the dyno at my firends shop. You are on your way to a great all motor engine. This would also work on the b18 head too.

Ben

F22 heads have great flow patterns, I think Ericks racing was developing some pretty trick racing valves for this head. That is what they are using on their B18 Integra that runs low 10's (fastest all motor FWD honda in the world)



Toda Vtec killers for the F22
