Default question?

Im about to get my brothers 91 2 door accord. It has the f22 motor in it. Should i just rebuild the motor, it really needs some tlc and convert to stick. Or should i just replace the motor with an h22 and call it a day.

Well the motor used to have a knock in it and my dumbass bro took it to some lame *** shop. So i dont know if they actually fixed it or just rigged it.

Sandpapered journals and new bearings hold without knocking for a couple thousand miles.




If you got the money of course upgrade. Even an H23 would be cheaper, easier and still.
