F22A1 pre build Questions
OK the DSM Exhaust manifold will work should i get a stock one or an aftermarket DSM one and which generation?some people sayd the 2nd gens are less prone to cracking. Isnt the DSM Turbo Manifold Cast iron? How hard is it to mod it to fit the F22 head? I have a TD05 So im going to use that, but i want to go forged internals. Now ive searched and it appears that out of the results i looked at no one makes forged internals for the F22 but i ran across a post on here that says that H22 Internals will work. So, if i get JE slugs/eagle Rods for an H22 i can jsut throw them in right? or will i have clearence problems internally? and do i use OEM F22 Bearings or OEM H22 bearings? Im guessing i can use the arp rod bolts for the h22 as well right? other then that everything else should be ok and the bottom end will eb done. One last thing. Which Trans do yall preffer the f series trans or the h series trans? manual of course but which one is more stout/optimal for highway driving?

Re: F22A1 pre build Questions
they do make forged internals for the f22, i know bc i have them all lol...just search for it. I do not think (correct me here) that you can put an h22 head on the f22 block, but i could be wrong. Maybe with some machining love and ---- like that, but i do not think itis a direct bolt on. If you are going to spend the money for the h22 why not just get an entire h22 engine, bc some of them came with closed decks = , but they do make internals for the f22, just do some more searchin, arais sells em and so does crower and ----. Arp also makes studs that will work~ check out cb7tuner.com for more questions

Also, h23 works on f23.
Researcher, I've heard that the 2g's flow better, although any turbo manifold from a 4g63t would work well for your needs
With chris's SSAuto manifold that we're using,

We had to redrill 3 holes, but I've seen online many people only had to redrill two. It's semi time consuming, just make sure you have the correct bits (we had wood bits )
As far as internals, IIRC H23 rods are the ones you want. I remember reading on cb7 that h23 rods are the same exact size. Don't quote me on that, go research... pistons, I did find some at one point but cannot remember where I did find them.
Highway driving, stick with an F22 tranny. The H22 has closer gears.

h23 is a good medium.
